Pick a project to estimate

Hand-dyed in small batches, so colors shift a little between dye lots. We recommend one extra skein so you never run short mid-project.

How many skeins? Roughly — hat 1 · socks 1–2 · shawl 2–3 · adult sweater 5–7. ✦ Each colour is hand-dyed in small batches — order your whole project at once (plus one spare) so every skein is the same dye lot.

Our beloved sock yarn is back!

We're delighted to welcome BFL Tough Sock back to the shelves!

Combining the natural softness and beautiful sheen of Bluefaced Leicester wool with the strength of nylon, BFL Tough Sock is a yarn made to be worn and loved for years to come. Soft enough to wear comfortably next to the skin, yet wonderfully durable, it's the perfect choice for socks that will accompany you on countless adventures.

Its naturally springy character gives your knitting excellent stitch definition and helps finished projects keep their shape beautifully over time. Whether you're knitting intricate colorwork socks, simple vanilla socks, or lightweight accessories, BFL Tough Sock is a joy to work with.

This yarn takes color exceptionally well, making every La Bien Aimée colorway shine—from vibrant speckles and painterly variegated shades to rich, saturated tonals.
