Harborne Carnival
One Sunday, usually at the end of June, Harborne High Street is closed off, the buses re-routed and the length of the street is converted into a funfair. You’ll find a carousel, fast food stalls, hook a duck, a bouncy castle, ice cream vans, a haunted house and loads of other great things to do. It is a riot of colour and is good old fashioned British fun. It just had to be translated into wacky, stripy sock yarn, don’t you agree?

Yarn base
100% Bluefaced Leicester 4 ply / sock 100g skeins (approx 350m)
Our non superwash yarn is spun in Yorkshire from British fleece and hand dyed in small batches in Birmingham. Whilst colour consistency between batches is good, due to the dyeing process no two skeins will be identical and there may be slight colour variations between batches. It is therefore recommended that you buy enough yarn from the same batch to complete your projects and that you alternate skeins every other row.
Once you have completed your garment, it is recommended that you handwash your finished item in lukewarm water with your wool wash of choice and lay your washed garment flat to dry. Although the yarn is thoroughly rinsed after dyeing, some slight colour bleed may occur at first wash.
I photograph my yarn in natural daylight, however colour variations can occur between monitors.
