White Bluefaced Leicester is a premium British longwool renowned for its silky sheen, soft hand, and excellent drape—ideal for both spinning and felting. Developed in northern England, this fibre brings together the best of longwool heritage and modern versatility. The fibre’s long staple contributes to a smooth, drapy finished yarn, with a beautiful sheen that lifts vibrant colours. It works well for next-to-skin garments despite being sturdier than Merino.
