Product Description

Valley Yarns Northampton is a workhorse yarn that you'll come back to time and time again. We sourced a soft Peruvian wool and dyed it in a beautiful collection of solid colors and heathered shades. It is a dream to felt and a superb choice for garments, blankets, and accessories especially cabled or colorwork projects! Northampton is beautiful and economical, too.

New to knitting or crochet? Valley Yarns Northampton is the perfect choice for those who are just starting out or looking to hone their skills. Well-defined, easy to see stitches make for much less guesswork when it comes to figuring out where your needles or hook should go next. Once you've mastered the basics, Valley Yarns Northampton rises magnificently to the challenge of more complicated designs.

    One of my favorite 100% wool garment yarns

    At the moment, I’m wearing a sweater knit from Valley Yarn’s Northampton and I have two more Northampton sweaters on my needles.

    This sweater is the first thing I put on in the morning. It’s so warm and cozy.

    There’s quit a bit of pilling at first but after the first few days of wearing a new Northampton garment, a good de-pilling sets it right.

    If you plan to gift a Northampton garment, be sure to include instructions on de-pilling so the recipient knows how to keep the garment presentable.

    Because of the way it pills at first, I haven’t used Northampton for a garment with a lace work pattern.

    This is one of the best sturdy yet wearable and comfortable yarns I’ve used.

    My new favorite worsted weight - non- super wash!!

    My new favorite!! This is a lovely, super soft, untreated wool that is better than I hoped for. It is my new go-to standard. Fast service with shipping. All around great experience.
