Yarnadelic Sport by John Arbon Textiles in Waltz: 100% Falklands Corriedale, soft yet bouncy with gorgeous stitch definition.

Description

John Arbon Textiles has always loved a good bop, which sparked the idea of creating a yarn range inspired by eclectic music tastes, from punk to funk! That’s how the Yarnadelic palette was born, during an evening of good vibes and chilled wine, with each shade capturing the spirit of a favourite song.

Spun from 100% Falklands Corriedale (a breed around 100 years old, originally developed by crossing Merino with Lincoln Longwool), Yarnadelic strikes the perfect balance. It combines the softness and bounce of Merino with the subtle lustre and long staple length of Lincoln Longwool, making it one of John Arbon Textiles’ most cherished fibres.

The Sport version of Yarnadelic is given a rounded 3-fold structure to enhance stitch definition and drape, creating the ultimate go-to yarn for everything from cables to lace, and garments to accessories.

Every shade in the Yarnadelic collection is named after a song. There’s even a playlist on Soundcloud and Spotify, so click those needles, wave those hooks, and make along to the beat with this groovy range of melange shades!

Fibre Characteristics

Falklands Corriedale: This fibre has a good long staple length, is smooth with a hint of lustre and oodles of bounce. The breed is derived from a cross of the Merino sheep and Lincoln Longwool. Micron: 29; Average Staple Length: 12.5cm/5”

The climate in the UK is not suited to Merino and Corriedale sheep. John Arbon Textiles makes sure to source theirs from the Falklands in order to ensure that the animals have been treated with the utmost care and are free from harmful mulesing.

Care Instructions

John Arbon Textiles recommends that all yarns are gently washed before use, as no washing or conditioning is carried out after the yarns are spun and skeined. A simple soak allows the fibres to bloom beautifully and gives a much clearer sense of the gauge and character of the yarn over time.

Once a piece is finished, John Arbon Textiles suggests giving it another hand wash before wet blocking to the given dimensions. This process sets the stitches and ensures the garment looks its very best.
