The Gotland fibre arrives silvery grey rather than white, so this base has a colour of its own before you do anything to it - and dyeing over that grey gives results no white base can produce. Colours come out softened, complex and slightly dusty, which is exactly the palette a lot of dyers are chasing at the moment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePerfect for jumpers, cardigans, hats and blankets at standard DK gauge. Gotland brings a light sheen and a gentle halo, which flatters plain stocking stitch and softens the look of simple shaping.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bramble \u0026amp; Fleece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eYarn Weight:\u003c\/strong\u003e DK\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBall Weight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100g hank\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength:\u003c\/strong\u003e 233m (254yds)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRecommended Needle Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBlend:\u003c\/strong\u003e 75% British Bluefaced Leicester \/ 25% Gotland\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTension:\u003c\/strong\u003e 22 stitches × 28 rows = 10 × 10cm (4mm needles)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCare:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hand wash and dry flat.
