Yardley Yarn

Celebrate craft and Birmingham with this Number 11 bus route inspired yarn. The Birmingham Outer Circle, or number 11, is an iconic 27 mile bus route which circumnavigates Birmingham, predominantly on the A4040 outer ring road. The 12 colours of the colour wheel correspond to the town which is located at that point on the colour wheel.

The non superwash yarn is spun in Yorkshire from British fleece and hand dyed in small batches in Birmingham. Whilst colour consistency between batches is good, due to the dyeing process no two skeins will be identical and there may be slight colour variations between batches. It is therefore recommended that you buy enough yarn from the same batch to complete your projects and that you alternate skeins every other row.

Once you have completed your garment, it is recommended that you wash your finished item in lukewarm water with your wool wash of choice and lay your washed garment flat to dry. Although the yarn is thoroughly rinsed after dyeing, some slight colour bleed may occur at first wash.

The yarns are photographed in natural daylight, however colour variations can occur between monitors.
