Brigantia yarns are made from pure wool and are spun in Yorkshire from the finest whole fleece with a long staple, high lustre and pure white base. These qualities give a smooth, glossy yarn with clear colours, ideal for tapestry. The yarn is then dyed, treated with conditioners and gently dried in a flow of warm air to produce a full and soft finish.
All our canvases are produced on world renowned Zweigart canvas to provide the quality that we know you expect. Each one is hand printed to achieve the very best in accuracy of design meeting the canvas. With our 5 and 7 hole canvas we can guarantee that every stitch will be printed with the correct colour leaving no need for guesswork.
