@JonathanGregory, this is currently supported in `pyproj` master: 
https://github.com/pyproj4/pyproj/blob/6390041fc2bfb569e90f615adb7ba75160d41aa8/pyproj/crs/_cf1x8.py

You can see the tests that were run to check the conversion to/from the CF 
format of the projection 
[here](https://github.com/pyproj4/pyproj/blob/6390041fc2bfb569e90f615adb7ba75160d41aa8/test/crs/test_crs_cf.py).

I didn't find any parameters that weren't able to be supported by WKT. However, 
there are many projections that WKT can describe that aren't supported by CF. 
There is an extensive list 
[here](https://proj.org/operations/projections/index.html) for projections 
supported by PROJ. Only a subset is supported by CF conventions.
