To create the subtle, complex pair of bases that make up Preseli, they're mill-blended as tops before spinning. By blending this way, Garthenor is able to get a smooth, even top that keeps the deep grey blend, perfect for heathery tones once dyed.
A blend of Polwarth, Romney and Hebridean, Preseli is Garthenor's softest yarn ever. This color palette is a dream for colourwork.
