Sutton - Bulky

Sutton is a sturdy 3-ply bulky yarn with a rustic feel, perfect for quick-to-knit slippers and mittens or a warm jacket. Sutton is the big sister to Winfield and it’s also 100% Canadian yarn from sheep to spinning to dyeing. We’ve kept a few of our favourite Largo colourways and added some exciting new ones too!
