Chunky Andean Wool by Kaos
£6.75
-
We are so excited to stock this gorgeous new yarn from this fabulous new brand that's focused on colour psychology in yarn, as well as ethical production, fair trade and organic standards.
Chunky Andean Wool is a single spun yarn made of 100% Peruvian Highland Wool from a natural crossbreed between Merino and Corriedale sheep grazing in the Andes 2500-5000m above sea level.
It has a subtle melange look from the natural mix of white, brown and black fibres, which adds a rich depth to the colours.
The family owned spinning mill in Peru is Fair Trade certified, ensuring good working conditions for everyone creating this yarn. All dyeing follows European regulations regarding toxic free dyes and environmental concerns.
The yarn is lovely and soft, and has strong enough structure for great stitch definiton. Knits up quickly and is amazing for garments and accessories alike. It will hold its shape even on larger needles, and give you a light, airy fabric.
KAOS YARN colors are inspired by human nature and our personal strengths. Explore your colorful nature!
We stock all the colours because we couldn't leave any of them behind - they are all so amazing! In fact, it's probably the most exciting palette we've ever seen. We cannot wait to see the combinations you come up with!
