This single colour batt is a dark, elegant shade of deep red, based on the colour of so called black or chocolate Dahlia flowers. This blend was also put together for the 'Warning - When I am old I will wear purple' box.
This blend uses a rather different base than normal. The batts are 2/3 Black Welsh and 1/3 tussah silk.
I was impressed with the texture of the Black Welsh fibre, for a mountain breed, the fibres is softer than I expected, with a lovely spring to it. However, it is not as soft as merino, so if you would prefer another wool used for the base, please drop me a line for a custom order
