This is a beautiful naturally off white 100% finnsheep wool yarn. It is a fingering weight 3 ply, 275 yards, 2.8 ounces.
This wool was spun into yarn at a small US mill to our specifications except, they goofed. This was supposed to have nylon added for a 70/30 blend of wool and nylon for a sock yarn…instead it is 100% wool. No matter, we love it and it dyes beautifully too. The color is a warm off white/ beige because it is a blend of our white sheep and the lighter colored wool from our variegated brown sheep who have creamy vanilla colored wool on most of their body.
The finnsheep wool in this yarn was bred, born, raised and shorn entirely at Point of View Farm Finnsheep. These ewes are specifically selected for top quality fiber to produce the most luxurious of yarns. The Point of View Farm flock is pasture raised in the Hudson Valley region of New York and given the utmost in care and love. We know happy healthy sheep produce beautiful fiber. The pastures they graze are never treated with synthetic chemicals. Only compost from our own farm. The mill uses mild soap to clean the wool and not harsh detergents. This keeps the wool soft, lofty and ‘healthy’ for your special project.
From my family to yours…Enjoy.
