A brand new yarn of Merino and Rambouillet wool from Shaniko Wool Co. where all the ranches follow Responsible Wool Standards. A third party auditor ensures that the sheep are humanely treated, the land is managed well and with an improved carbon footprint, and all the workers are treated fairly.

The yarn is completely grown, scoured, processed, and spun in the United States. We hand dye the yarn in 24 lightly tonal vibrant colors that play well together. It’s incredibly soft and has great bounce.

We put it up in hefty 4 oz (113 gr) and 8 oz (227 gr) skeins & in mini skein packs. Please adjust yardage and skein weight on individual stash entries. This is the same base yarn.
