What makes this yarn unique and special? It’s a toss-up between the incredibly rich & variated colors and its usability for everyday life. Wool is a natural insulator, the crimp in wool fiber means tiny pockets of air are captured for breathability and insulation — making this yarn resistant to mold and mildew. It can soak up as much as 30% of its own weight in moisture without feeling wet. Another amazing benefit? Wool won’t catch on fire unless under extreme circumstances. If it does, each individual fiber holds enough moisture that the flame will self-extinguish.

Wool is pretty INCREDIBLE and we are so excited to share these amazing colors with our makers.
