Description

I love the next-to-skin-soft warmth of this yarn! This wool comes from a Virginia farm committed to sustainable farming, with minimal processing of their fibers. I’m not exaggerating when I say you can *feel* the lanolin goodness while knitting with this yarn! Choose from natural colors, which are beautiful all on their own, or colors hand-dyed with eco safe dyes.

I’ve used this yarn in several shawls in my DMV local fibers collection (see the last few photos for examples).

***Need a larger quantity? Looking for different colors? The farm has several natural, undyed options as well as kettle dyed wool using eco friendly dyes. Please send me a message to discuss a custom order!***
