The theme for the Phat Fiber Box for June 2017 is Solstice.
Solstices are about transitions. The transition between night and day, summer and winter. In our past the Sun was vitally important to our ancestors during midsummer, to ensure a good harvest.
However, so was water. Therefore, I took my inspiration from sunrise over water.
To see the photograph which gave me my inspiration for these rolags, go to

The photograph is a photograph of a sunrise over Windermere.
I created each individual colour for these rolags by blending on my drum carder baby llama and 21 micron merino. The different blended batts were then used to create rolags on my blending board that echo the reflected colours of the sunrise over Lakeland.
These rolags contain 70% merino : 30% baby llama
You will recieve 100g of rolags in the Lakeland First Light Colourway. Both of the fibres in this blend will felt. If you do not want them to, hand wash in cool water.
