Wool/yarn recommendations

[Atalune]

I am going to knit my children some school colour wrist warmers for school. I can knit a little and have made the odd hat, wrist warmer, blanket.

What I wanted to know what would you say would be the best wool for this? Something that will be very cosy and soft but will also wear reasonably well? I usually knit with Debbie bliss cashmero but will that get wrecked quickly?

As the items are only small I’ll only need a couple of balls so don’t mind spending a bit.

Thank you!

Have a look at the West Yorkshire Spinners range. Lots of colours and weights. I use some for walking socks, some for shawls etc.

Colour Lab is lovely
This is 100% British wool and machine washable at 40.

You can't go wrong with stylecraft imo. Or scheepjes colour crafter. I buy them from wool warehouse.

Yes WYS is lovely and very good value for British wool.

Thank you for all your suggestions.

Sock yarn would be perfect for this as it's made to be hard wearing, warm and washable.
