Yarn origin

Source of fiber: United Kingdom, Yarn is Scottish - Sheep are bred and reared on the Isle of Berneray in the Outer Hebrides, Scotland.

100% Hebridean wool
From sheep reared exclusively on islands in the Outer Hebrides, Scotland.

Our Mòine-dhon 4 ply yarn is purely from our seafaring Hebridean sheep. The dark, broken brown reflects the peaty moors of the East coast of our islands. Given our sheep’s Norse ancestry their fleeces produce a yarn that is warm, soft and robust. Perfect for that favourite Sunday walk sweater or those mitts for hiking in the mountains.

Hand wash with care.
