WooLino is regional, sustainable and fantastic. There is no better way to describe this yarn.
The unfinished lambswool from the Swabian Alb has fantastic temperature-regulating properties. The European linen not only gives it a great drape and a noble look, but also sufficient durability for socks.

This yarn is suitable for tops, scarves, accessories and even socks (be careful – Woolino is not superwash and plastic-free). Since it has not been treated and was produced regionally, you get a very sustainable yarn here. The lambswool is nice and soft and is also suitable for people who are not too sensitive to wear it directly on the skin.

Non superwash yarns have fantastic natural properties, are dirt-repellent, antimicrobial and heat-balancing. It is often enough to ventilate, but since the sheep do not come from purely residential housing, you can of course also wash your knitted piece. You can find the care recommendations here.

CAUTION! The mottled and the non-mottled variant of a color are shown on each picture. The difference is not always too clear. The mottled variant contains both light and black linen fibers.
