Tasmanian English Leicester Locks - Lemon Yellow 13241

Tasmanian grown English Leicester curly locks hand dyed in a gorgeous combination of popular lemon and a golden yellow to give a lovely rich colour combination. The variation in colour comes from the natural variation in the base colour of the locks. This has given a lovely olive green in some of the locks.

The staple lengths will vary because these locks have been hand dyed 'in the grease' it means they have not been washed and disturbed too much prior to dyeing, there may be a little residual dye and lanolin (lovely for your hands) and possibly the odd stray piece of vegetable matter remaining.
