LAMBSWOOL

ball band: "Worsted" · hand wash

100% wool

Worsted

LAMBSWOOL – fibres fine as cashmere from Australian merino sheep. Produced by our long-standing partners in Italy, our mulesing-free quality LAMBSWOOL is traceable right back to the farm of origin in Eastern Australia. The entire delivery chain of the yarn is certified RWS (Responsible Wool Standard), this ensures the welfare of the sheep, sustainable land management, and safe working conditions from farm to finished product. Furthermore, the dyeing process and all of the steps in the finishing of the yarn have Cradle to Cradle (C2C) Gold certification, which means that the yarn is completely biodegradable at the end of its life, leaving no harmful substances behind. Our commitment to the highest standards of quality guarantee that you can enjoy your knitted or crocheted garment for a long time before it reaches that point.

Weight group is derived from measured gauge, not the brand's label — that is why a yarn labelled "aran / worsted" can sit in our Aran group while another brand's "worsted" lands in DK. Library: 1406 yarns · 42 brands · 135 without gauge · 276/1408 gauge rows missing row count.
