Le Lambswool is prepared with the special Scottish traditional savoir faire, by a family owned fiber mill in Scotland 🤎
Process
It is scoured and steam damped, so no traces of spinning oil and added loftiness. Our partner takes the wool through carefully selected processes where the wool becomes small yarn balls, and each ball band is added by hand to the yarn ball. We love a crafted and handmade look, which may include small traces of imperfections, which for us, are part of the charm of natural wool and of Biches & Bûches.
Colors
Very earthy and natural looking, which never cease to inspire us.
Each yarn ball is approx. 50g with approx. 170 meters/ approx. 185 yards

Manmi designed The Smocky Cardigan with Le Lambswool in Grey Brown @Soopknits
"The yarn from Biches & Bûches is known for its rustic feel and beautiful stitch definition. Just looking at a finished piece made with it makes me incredibly happy, which is why it is one of my favorite yarns to use. I already completed several projects with it and I highly recommend you experience it as well."
Jessica McDonald designed The Bough Sweater with Le Lambswool @Jessicamknits
"Le Lambswool creates an absolutely dreamy fabric. It is the perfect combination of rustic and soft, and I love how the fabric is airy and warm with just a touch of drape to it. It's an absolutely stunning sweater yarn, and I know I'll be knitting with it again."
