No Waste Wool

Our No Waste Wool is a sustainable wool yarn made of 50% recycled wool and 50% of our extrafine Merino, traceable and non-mulesed.

The yarn is very soft and has a beautiful and woolen texture. 

The recycled wool is a waste product from the production of other wool yarns. We collect the excess wool fibers, blend it with our merino wool and spin the wool blend into a new yarn. This way we use the wool fibers that would otherwise be wasted, and reduce waste in yarn productions.

The 50% merino wool prevents the yarn from breaking easily, which is often the case with pure recycled yarns.

Our yarns

All of our yarns consist of 100 % natural fibers.  Our yarns are produced with respect for animals and our environment.   The merino wool comes from an organic farm in Patagonia where mulesing is not allowed, and is then made into yarn in Italy following ethical and environmental guidelines to create a yarn free from harmful chemicals.

Our Mohair comes from goats raised in South Africa according to humane standards.  We categorically reject any mistreatment of animals in the mohair industry or elsewhere.

We believe in high-quality yarn made of pure natural fibres, and do our very best to create such yarn in a beautiful, carefully selected, range of colours.
