Winwick Mum:
"The fabulous Christine Perry aka sock-knitting blogger Winwick Mum was inspired by the everyday to create her Seascape, Brightside, Wildflower and Hidden Gem colourways for the Signature 4ply range. Evoking the flower-lined paths of country walks to the colour of gemstones concealed in pockets, Christine’s self-striping shades can be crafted perfectly into socks, shawls or scarves and also work beautifully when combined with the solid colours of our flagship Signature 4ply range.
With the yarn’s durable blend of 75% wool (which includes 35% Bluefaced Leicester) and 25% nylon, your creations will last for years to come while staying beautifully bright and always comfortable to wear."
Zandra Rhodes:
"Iconic fashion designer Dame Zandra Rhodes brings her fabulous eye for colour to our award-winning Signature 4ply. With the yarn’s superb blend of wool, including 35% Bluefaced Leicester, and a twist of nylon for durability, Zandra’s unique colourways will bring out the very best in your socks and shawls, with softness and strength in every stitch.
The colours have all been inspired by the magic of nature, and Zandra has combined digital painting techniques with WYS’ innovative dyeing methods to make the yarn truly come alive with colour."
