Morris DK

West Yorkshire Spinners presents Morris DK, a collaborative new yarn made in partnership with The William Morris Society. 

William Morris was a key figure in the British Arts & Crafts movement of the mid-19th and early 20th centuries, best remembered for his textile design inspired by medieval styles as well as the flora and fauna of the British countryside.

Morris DK is made using three quality British fleeces: lustrous and luxurious Bluefaced Leicester, soft and durable Bluefaced Kerry Hill, and rustic and charming Masham. The color palette has been carefully curated, capturing the iconic hues of the Victorian era.
