I missed a bid on eBay and been trying to know what the name is of this style of West Yorkshire Spinners yarn, as Google is frustrating.
much appreciated all.

It was a limited edition to support the Marie Curie charity. Quite hard to come by now, I imagine. Goldfinch is similar-ish, though.

Or the latest Marie Curie WYS edition which has the same colours but a bit more intense here: www.cityknits.co.uk/marie%2Dcurie%2Dlimited%2Dedition%2Dsock%2Dyarn%2D2018%2D%2D%2Dall%2Dcolours%7E3171

Do you mean the style of the yarn generically, or are you trying to trace the specific one.

If the former, it is variegated sock yarn, sometimes listed as 'fingering' weight or 4 ply. You will find similar yarn in a search for Regia sock yarn (Regia is a brand, not a style of yarn) 😀

It was the specific one in the photo, that I was looking for. Much appreciated for your information.
