It actually is made or was made here in the UK and is a knitting
machine yarn. I think it is no longer available.
I do have a cone or two of it but it was made in several different
colour ways. There are odd cones of it offered on UK ebay.
I gave a lot of it away last year when I packed my knitting machine up.
Never been able to use it since my heart bypass.
