Inspired by the subtle tones in the Devon landscape, John Arbon set out to achieve a similar effect by blending the super saturated tones of dyed Merino and BFL with the naturally dark fibre of the Devon Zwartbles. When blended, they create a sublime depth of colour – transforming the resulting yarn and tops into complex, mottled shades reminiscent of our local autumnal landscape.

Like all of John Arbon’s yarns, Harvest Hues is worsted spun at their Mill – this preparation method combs the fibres in one direction, accentuating the blend’s softness, shine and strength. The soft, squishy Merino, elegant Bluefaced Leicester and bouncy Zwartbles complement each other perfectly, giving the yarn and tops a delicate woolly halo and full-bodied texture (great for cables and rustic lace), and a perfect blend of bounce and shine.
