This yarn is the softest in our range, and the easiest to knit nice and evenly with. It is loosely spun and can be used on everything from tightly-knitted projects on thin needles, to airy garments. The yarn is hand-dyed in the very softest fibers (those found on the innermost part of the sheep’s fleece), and as with all untreated wool fibers, some pilling will occur. This is due to the phenomenal lightness and softness. Excess fibers can be removed easily by clipping off any pills a few times, after which the fibers will settle. The advantage of it is that it is 100% itch-free - absolutely guaranteed! In addition, Abuelita is such a small manufacturer that they fully control where all the wool comes from. All the sheep are well cared for, provided with enough food and being freeing to roam outdoors all year round. The wool is certified as mulesing-free. All yarn from Abuelita is hand-dyed in small batches, and some variation between batches may occur.
