The Les Garçons British DK base is a DK-weight yarn spun from a beautiful blend of bluefaced leicester wool and natural brown masham wool. Mashams have been bred for over a century on the hills of Northern England. When dyed, amazing and deep colours come through due to the brown masham fibres in the blend.
