The Lexington Woolies 100% cormo is spun using fleece from our own cormo sheep. A cormo is an Australian breed of sheep and is derived by crossing corriedale with merino sheep.

The yarn is spun as either a 4ply/fingering weight or a 8ply/DK weight and knits on a 4.00mm needle. As all knitters vary in tension, please do a tension swatch.

Meterage: 360 m/100g 4ply, and 200m/100g 8 ply.

We wanted to share the inspiration behind our collection in the hope that it will inspire you too. Our collection was previously hand dyed by the lovely Louie & Lola Yarns and is now commercially dyed. Whilst the colour ways have been closely matched, please note that the images shown are of the previously hand-dyed range.

The colours that are listed below appear left to right in the image supplied.

Olive Forest

Olive forest was inspired by the sheoak casurina trees that the Lexington Woolies sheep shelter under.

Bronze

Throughout the summer months the tall native paddock grasses form bronzed seed heads and ripple in the drying winds.

Russet

Russet was inspired by the shearing shed's rustic iron roof. The shearing shed was built in the early 1920s. It still awakens for the clip today.

Burnt Umber

Trevor, a thoroughbred, has assisted with stock management in the bush for many years. His flash of colour moving through the bush is reflected in this colourway.

Fawn

Fawn is the colour of Lily, the first Lexington alpaca. Now bonded to the cormo flock, her starting role was to protect and lead.

Bone

Bone was inspired by the sandy bay to which Lexington looks to. The bay is a shallow tidal bay, situated on the south-east of the Derwent Estuary with oyster beds and Palawa middens surrounding its shoreline.

Stone

The mountain to which Lexington sits below is formed from fossiliferous mudstone and shelters the Lexington flock from the Westerly winds. Stone was inspired by our daily walks, spying the fossils within the slowly eroding boulders.

Silver gum

Silver gum was inspired by the colours of the critically endangered Morrisby’s gum (Eucalyptus morrisbyi). Unique to Tasmania, there were only 43 mature trees of this species left in the wild in winter 2022, split across two locations on Hobart’s eastern shore. Lexington is part of a program to save these trees and contains 10 trees growing onsite.

South sea

South sea was inspired by the water in the bay to which Lexington looks to. The bay is shallow and is situated on the south-east of the Derwent Estuary.

Haynes

Sidney and Elsie Haynes were Alice's (The founder of Lexington Woolies Tasmania) great grandparents and built Lexington. The colour 'Haynes' was inspired by the rustic patina of the farm buildings built in the 1920s.

Care: For all products, while efforts have been undertaken to ensure removal of any excess dye from the yarn, little may remain, therefore please hand wash projects in cold water using wool detergent on their own. Rinse in cold water, roll in a towel to squeeze out excess water and dry flat.

Colours between and within dye batches and can sometimes vary. Please ensure that you buy enough yarn for your project at the same time and alternate skeins when knitting larger projects to limit the possibility of pooling. Colours and meterage can also vary each year.

Whilst every effort has been undertaken to ensure accurate colour descriptions of our products, screens do vary in display.
