Skadi is a 3-ply Worsted weight yarn made from Merino d'Arles GOTS-certified wool - with a 21 micron count, this is the softest wool native to Europe. This rare sheep breed hails from southern France and, due to the high crimp of its fleece, yarn spun from this wool has pockets of trapped air, providing insulation and resulting in warmer garments. The wool from this breed is exceptionally fluffy, bouncy, and soft.
Equally GOTS-certified, the mill in Turkey then both spins and dyes this exquisite organic fibre, under one roof! This reduces the carbon footprint and ensures that the wool meets Hey Mama Wolf's high standards for quality and sustainability. GOTS certification is an important guarantee coing to the best for the environment, sheep, and the people involved in the production.
Knitting with Skadi is an absolute delight. It is lofty, light and as soft as a cloud. It is perfect for sweaters, hats, and scarves.
