I have a yarn just for you!

I am so excited to be bringing back Bluefaced Leicester Sock 150 (BFL Sock 150) to the yarn shop! This base originally debuted back in spring of 2020 as a limited run yarn that I picked out just for my crochet crew, and since you all seem to love it as much as I do, I have decided to give this luxurious base a permanent spot in the Megs & Co yarn lineup.

As a long time crocheter, I always struggled with the decision of whether to purchase one skein or two of a particular colorway because with many crochet projects, one is never enough, and two is too much! Our BFL Sock 150 is exactly ½ times the amount of our traditional BFL Sock skeins giving you the perfect amount of yarn for those projects that require 1 skein plus “some”. Attention grabbing title aside, this yarn is not just for crocheters, but for anyone looking for just a little bit of extra yardage without wanted to invest in 2 full skeins. Stop playing yarn chicken and stop rotating between mismatched dye lots; with 657 yards, BFL Sock 150 is the perfect amount of fingering weight yarn for sweaters, cowls, shawls, and beyond!

The beautiful luster of Bluefaced Leicester provides a lovely sheen to the finished yarn, and its drape is superior to many other wools. While not quite as fine as some Merino, the 24-26 micron wool of the Bluefaced Leicester is still very soft and comfortable to wear against the skin. BFL is one of my favorite wools to knit and crochet with as it offers the perfect comprise between softness and strength with an unmatched luxurious quality that is hard to find.
