The Fibre Co. Cumbria Fingering
Inspired by England's stunning northwest region with its deep blue lakes and sheep-grazed fells and valleys, Cumbria Fingering, by The Fibre Company, is a lighter weight version of our popular Cumbria, a lustrous blend of 30% brown masham wool from rare breed sheep, 60% fine South American merino wool, and 10% mohair. The resulting light brown-grey shade is then over dyed creating lovely deep saturated colors. Cumbria Fingering is a staple yarn, perfect for garments and accessories alike.
