Hey Mama Wolf Skadi
£14.50
  • Material: 100% Merino d’Arles GOTS certified Wool

  • Yardage: 200m/100g

  • Needle: 3.5 - 4.5 mm

  • Gauge: 20 = 10 cm

  • Washing instructions: Hand Wash

Skadi is a plump 3-ply DK /Worsted weight yarn made from Merino d'Arles GOTS-certified wool—with a 21 micron count, this is the softest wool native to Europe. This rare sheep breed hails from southern France and, due to the high crimp of its fleece, yarn spun from this wool has pockets of trapped air, providing insulation and resulting in warmer garments. The wool from this breed is exceptionally fluffy, bouncy, and soft.

By spinning and dyeing this organic wool at a GOTS-certified mill in Turkey, everything is done under one roof, reducing the carbon footprint and ensuring that the wool meets high standards for quality and sustainability. GOTS certification guarantees the best for the environment, sheep, and even the people involved in the production.

Knitting with Skadi is an absolute delight. It is lofty, light and as soft as a cloud and perfect for sweaters, hats, and scarves.

De Rerum Natura Albertine
£9.00

Albertine is a 4 ply, worsted spun yarn made from the fleece of Merinos d'Arles, raised on an organic farm near Aureille in Provence, France, with a touch of silk from south of Shanghai, China.

The silk gives this fine (21.5 microns) and exceptionally elastic wool a discreet satiny sheen and a very nice drape.

These very fine fibres are combed into a ribbon to increase their softness and strength, and then spun in the Biella region of Italy, as no spinning mill in France today is capable of spinning such fine combed yarn. This single strand is then twisted to create a four strand yarn, dyed in Creuse (France).

Fibre composition: 90 % organic Merinos d'Arles (France) / 10 % mulberry silk (China)
Ball size: 50g
Meterage: 218 yds (200 m) / 50 g
Gauge: 28 sts x 40 rows on 2.5 mm needles (US 1) / 26 sts x 38 rows on 3 mm needles (US 2) / 24 sts x 36 rows on 3.5 mm needles (US 4)
Care:This yarn is not superwash treated. We recommend washing your knitted fabric in warm water with soap or a suitable detergent. If you wish to test the wool programme of your machine, we advise you to do so first with your sample.

ORIGINS AND MANUFACTURE

Bérénice is a unique blend of extra-fine Angora goat fibres from South African farms committed to animal welfare and the soft, plump wool of our organic Merinos d'Arles, spun into loops around a strong, shiny silk yarn, then combed to give the desired tousled, voluminous look. 

The yarn is then dyed using ecological dyes that comply with GOTS specifications to reduce its environmental impact. We manufacture this very special yarn in Italy, near Biella.
