Lamb's Pride Worsted
Lamb’s Pride has been the mainstay for Brown Sheep Company since the very beginning. Many experienced knitters and crocheters will tell you that no yarn stash is complete without a selection of Lamb’s Pride skeins. In fact, many longtime knitters fondly recall learning how to knit with Lamb’s Pride yarn. Lamb’s Pride remains a universal favorite because of its single-ply ease, silky finish, and extensive color selection. With its unique blend of 85% wool and 15% mohair, Lamb’s Pride has a distinctive luster that looks lovely in a handcrafted afghan, sweater, or hat. Katherine's notes: when I lived in Maine I loved this yarn for cozy warm mittens. It's lovely to knit and so soft. I also love it for felting projects. In the worsted weight, check your felting pattern - you may need two strands, or you can use the bulky weight. Here's a cute pattern for a child's hat - free on Ravelry: Luuk
