WESTIE

The yarn is so great to work with. A soft corriedale, with equal parts squish and drape, that takes dye beautifully. It’s machine wash but I recommend hand wash and dry flat for longevity of your garment.

The yarn base name, ‘Westie’ carries significance in other parts of the world I’m sure - but here in New Zealand, specifically Auckland, it means a person from the West side. That’s me and proud of it! We wear pj’s and sandals to the coffee shop, and leopard print whenever possible.
