New and improved 100g Warth Mill balls - 100% British wool

Our DK Warth Mill balls are a customer favourite for a reason. They're the perfect choice for makers who love working with natural fibres and like working from a traditional ball. Spun from 100% British wool, this yarn offers strength, breathability, and a soft handle that makes it suitable for a variety of projects.

If you loved our old Warth Mill yarn, you're going to love our new one!

Warth Mill was built over 150 years ago on the banks of the Huddersfield Narrow Canal. This canal was used to help transport fleeces, yarns and fuel from A to B. Warth Mill is now home to Woolyknit, which is rather fitting.

What's new?

Our new and improved Warth Mill yarn is stronger, more durable and has a rounder appearance. The result, a squishier yarn with excellent stitch definition. You'll find it still has the same rustic charm our old Warth Mill yarn had.

Why choose British wool?

British wool is known for its durability, natural warmth, and sustainable qualities. By choosing this yarn, you're not only making something that's going to last a lifetime but are also supporting UK farmers and the continuation of traditional wool production.
