The Cardigan Bay range has been hand dyed in Wales by Holly Waterman for Home Farm. Gorgeous range of coastal soft colours. Our hand dyed and hand painted wools are designed with a dye process that creates natural variations in the depth of colour throughout. We recommend that dyed wools should be washed separately.
