Coorie - a Scottish word for hug or nestle.

Introducing Coorie; a traditional, woollen spun yarn made from Poll Dorset and Zwartbles fleeces from two local farms and spun in Cornwall. A rustic yarn, perfect for outerwear (I can wear this right next to my skin but if you like a really soft yarn - this isn't it) - hard wearing and garments made up in this will keep you warm on the coldest of days! Small batch and a limited edition run.

When you hand make clothes so much love goes into every stitch that putting it on is like a warm hug, for you or the recipient. Wrapping the kids up in my knits makes me feel like my arms are around them all day - so this yarn that is named for a Scottish word for hug - can be those arms; of people you love, miss or wish you could hug once more. 

Coorie is dedicated to my beautiful Scottish friend Fi, who passed away last year and who will be remembered for her kind heart and her love of people, parties and a good cheddar.
