Our Price Promise

Home Farm have withdrawn all of their wool from wool shops and craft shows, and are trading online only. We therefore provide our best discount for larger quantities directly to the buyer, and not the reseller or venue. Given the cost of living crisis we all face, we are proud to make available high quality wool for your craft, at the lowest price possible.

This offer is for our Chunky / bulky pure wool. This wool is lustrous and beautifully soft Wensleydale blended with our finest Bluefaced Leicester. Very well suited to projects such as cosy quick knits and accessories. Take a look at our Home Farm kits.

Our bulky wool boasts fantastic stitch definition and drape. It is silky, smooth, soft and lustrous. Wensleydale is a versatile yarn and will knit to a standard tension. Ideal for any wool knitting or crochet pattern that buying requires a bulky wool. See our table below for further information and tensions.

Do try to ensure you buy enough wool for your project to make sure you are using the same dye lot. If you find you are short and would like more of the same colour, please message us with your dye number and of course a note that you bought a special pack so that we are able to offer extra skeins at this discounted price .

We always try to photograph our products as accurately as possible. However, colours may vary slightly.

........... This yarn is a revelation and I cannot stop petting it.
I'm knitting a swatch on 6mm needles and am thrilled with how it's turning out. I am not usually a lover of soft wools because I feel they tend to lack personality. Also in my experience the really soft wools seem to pill and look ratty really quickly because they don't usually possess the qualities that make a yarn hardwearing - high twist, a little bit of grit and prickle... But your buttery soft Big Wool yarn is an exception! It's got presence and woolliness yet feels silky and smooth to the touch and it looks to me as though it will wear well in my road testing.
There's less of a difference here between the airy plump yarn ball and fat bouncy stitches worked in this yarn; the hand-squish-grab really gives an instant impression of the soft and silky nature of the yarn.
