How the yarn behaves

Worsted-weight wool from heritage flocks — sturdy but satisfyingly soft hand with clean stitch definition for cables and texture. Slightly rustic surface that softens with wash and wear. Traceable to specific farms. Strong fit for traditional Aran sweaters, outerwear, hats and accessories. Hand wash cool with mild wool detergent and dry flat.
