A beautiful quality BFL with a slightly less soft feel than extra-fine Merino, but still among the softest available for this type of wool (21-micron grade). Although nylon-free, the BFL base can be used for making socks, as it is composed of long, strong fibers.
As for dyeing, BFL absorbs color very strongly, resulting in highly contrasting colors and very strong, saturated speckles. The finish is more matte than Merino.
