Atlas from Sandnes Garn is worsted-spun in both senses: the fibre preparation and the yarn weight: which gives it a smooth, dense structure and excellent stitch definition. The blend of Norwegian lambswool and Argentinian merino brings together rustic warmth and underlying softness, producing a yarn that has character without being uncomfortable to wear. The earthy palette suits the honest nature of the yarn: these are colours that work well for traditional garments and colourwork alike. Not superwash treated; hand wash and dry flat. A reliable, well-made worsted for projects built to last.
rooted in tradition and rich with character
Atlas is a yarn that we would categorize as a storyteller. The Storyteller carries the echoes of older traditions. These yarns come from heritage fibres, time-honoured spinning methods, and colour palettes shaped by generations of makers. Working with them connects today’s projects to the long, shared history of textile craft.
Storytellers are often a little rustic by nature. They may feel more “sheepy” than modern processed yarns and can be better suited to outerwear or layered garments if you have sensitive skin. Give them the care they deserve: swatch thoughtfully and follow laundering instructions.
