Cumbria Fingering

Carrying on with the success of the original worsted weight of Cumbria, Fibre Co. developed this fingering weight version with the same nod to the mood, light and places that characterise the North West of the United Kingdom. The brown wool from English Masham is blended with a fine Mohair from Argentina that adds strength, lustre and warmth. These two fibres are blended with a fine South American Merino to give the final yarn the softness and beautiful hand that defines The Fibre Co. yarns. The resulting light brown-grey shade is then over-dyed creating lovely deep saturated colours.  The cream shade and all heathers use a natural ecru Masham.

Fabrics knit from Cumbria Fingering are perfect for lighter weight garments and accessories alike
