How the yarn behaves

Big skeins of undyed wool in natural sheep shades and gentle marled blends. A traditional, slightly rustic wool — softer than expected from the look but more textured than commercial superwash. Felts well, so a popular pick for felted bags, slippers and home accessories; equally at home in chunky sweaters, blankets and outerwear where warmth and weight are wanted. Crisp stitch definition for cables and Aran patterns. Hand wash cool and dry flat unless felting is the goal.
