Pairs well with

This elegant blend combines the natural luster and durability of Bluefaced Leicester wool with the smooth sheen of fine silk—bringing together the best of both fibres in one luxurious top.

  • Fibre Content: Bluefaced Leicester and White Tussah Silk
  • Micron Count: Around 26 microns for the BFL component 
  • Staple Length: Long fibres (~3–6 inches), ideal for smooth drafting 
  • Texture: Silky, lustrous locks with a soft sheen
  •  Colour: Bright natural white, ready for dyeing or undyed use

The Bluefaced Leicester provides strength, elasticity, and a subtle gloss reminiscent of mohair, while the silk layer adds additional sheen, strength, and softness. The result is a fibre that drafts effortlessly into smooth yarn and holds its shape beautifully in both yarn and felted creations.

Whether you're spinning dappled art yarns, crafting refined next‑to‑skin garments, or adding a luxurious touch to felting projects, this BFL + Silk blend adds shimmer, strength, and elegance to your work.

Exceptional

I really love Wingham's fibre and always look forward to opening the packages. I wasn't disappointed with this beautiful BFL with Silk. It's exceptional, the quality and softness are a complete joy to work with. The fibre is open, like a cloud. It's not compressed and lifeless like some fibres I've been unfortunate to buy. It looks and feels like top quality and I have no hesitation in recommending this brilliant shop.
