Big Little Yarn Co - Superwash Blue Faced Leicester Wool (SWM BFL) Tweed DK
Big Little Yarn Co's Superwash Blue Faced Leicester Tweed DK (SWM BFL Tweed DK) is a rustic yet refined, hand-dyed yarn base spun in a plump 3-ply construction. It features a character-rich blend of 80% Superwash Blue Faced Leicester wool and 20% Tweed neps, delivering 230 meters (251 yards) per 100g skein. True to the brand's commitment, this specialty base carries the strict STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX safety and quality certification.
Why You’ll Love It:
✔ Signature BFL Lustre & Crispness - Blue Faced Leicester wool fibers are uniquely long and curly, granting the finished fabric a distinct, natural silky sheen along with crisp stitch definition.
✔ Playful Tweedy Textures - The integration of 20% dark and light tweed neps introduces a beautiful, tactile, heathered landscape that elevates simple stockinette stitches
✔ Resilient Shape Retention - SWM BFL inherently behaves more like a non-superwash yarn during blocking, offering superb elasticity, excellent drape, and less vertical stretching compared to traditional superwash merino.

Tips with working with Big Little Yarn Co yarns
All skeins are carefully dyed with acid dye, washed and rinsed, however some bleeding may still occur. Each skein is unique and therefore colors may vary slightly from one to the next. Due to differences between monitors and screens, actual colors may also vary from what is shown.

Let customers speak for us
from 186 reviewsI absolutely love the tool. It's gorgeous looking and very helpful. The tape is wider than usual ones. Doesn't get tangled
Decided to check out the store while on vacation in Singapore and it did not disappoint. It was well stocked with beautiful displays and showed the diversity of quality yarns. As I’m new to crocheting, Cecilia spent over a hour patiently explaining things to me and helping me select some beautiful skeins and shawl pins. Overall, a lovely store with excellent customer service. Highly recommend and will return anytime I’m in Singapore.
Nice colour, soft, easy to knit
Honestly, it was a great experience. I would love to go again during the next holidays, so I will start saving up ;)
All the Designs are what I wanted!
Such a lovely yarn to work with, and the sheen!
I am always extremely pleased using Furls Odyssey Crochet hooks as they are faultless! This one wasn’t the first purchased and I am sure it will not be the last. My parcel was delivered very fast, coming from the other half of the world ! Thank you Yarning Hearts! Good job, good job!
These organic yarn comes in pretty pastel and bright colours with a light sheen. The cottony soft and smooth texture feels comfortable against the skin. We are very happy with the buy!
Great value for the sturdy material and quantity. Comes in lovely colors too!
Furls Odyssey hooks are terrific.
The hook I purchased from Yarning Hearts is beautiful and I was pleasantly surprised at the swiftness of its arrival.
Knitpro Natural Yarn Dispenser
Very soft and squishy, can imagine would be very cozy to wear next to skin. And it feels good on the hands to knit with too.
Great quality yarn, fast delivery. Perfect for my baby blanket project
Really nice colours with soft texture. Love this yarn
Handy, good design and well crafted leather. Good value for money!!
