Biches + Bûches Le Petit Lambswool

A soft, light, and slightly rustic classic yarn from Scotland! Biches & Bûches Le Petit Lambswool is a beautiful, thin, and sturdy lambswool spun in a family-owned fiber mill in Scotland. It strikes the perfect balance between a traditional, rustic hand and a surprising softness that blooms beautifully after its first soak. The woolen-spun construction makes it light as a feather, yet incredibly warm and durable.

The Details: A Scandinavian Staple

Le Petit Lambswool was born from designer Astrid Troland’s search for the perfect "honest" yarn—one that reminded her of the sturdy, heritage sweaters of her Scandinavian roots but felt soft enough to wear against the skin. Because the colors are developed like an artist mixing paints, they are incredibly easy to pair for stripes or colorwork. It is a light, lofty choice for sweaters and accessories that you want to keep in your wardrobe for a lifetime.
