BC Garn Bio Shetland - Organic
BC Garn Bio Shetland - Organic
This is a ‘Shetland type’ yarn rather than from the Shetland Islands, due to the absence of organic farms there. It is designed to look and feel just like Shetland wool and has all the same wonderful properites. The colour palete is perfect for Fair Isle or other colour work as well as solid colour garments as the colour can vary sligtly within the hank. The raw wool comes from South America where mulesing is not used, and yarn is spun and dyed in Turkey.
