Wool from the Falkland Islands is typically known for its incredible strength, elasticity and cozy texture. Because this wool is grown in a colder climate and minimally processed, it is less delicate than typical merino wools. This yarn is GOTS certified, and made from mulesing-free wool in Turkey.

Machine wash on cold and gentle cycle using a no-rinse wool wash, use a garment bag to reduce agitation and friction. Lay flat to dry.

100% GOTS Certified Merino Wool

  • merino wool

    Merino sheep create a wool with a long, smooth fibre that is lightweight, warm, and soft. Like all wool, it has excellent breathability and does an excellent job regulating temperature in garments. It is a very popular type of wool to use for hand knitting yarn, and is a great choice for socks and garments worn close to the skin.
  • GOTS certified organic

    The Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) was developed by leading standard setters to define world-wide recognised requirements for organic textiles. From the harvesting of the raw materials, environmentally and socially responsible manufacturing to labelling, textiles certified to GOTS provide a credible assurance to the consumer.
  • mulesing free

    Mulesing is a controversial farming practice used, predominantly in Australia, to prevent the parasidic infection flystrike. While mulesing prevents infection, it is a very painful procedure for the animal to endure, and more humane alternatives exist. This practice is banned in many areas of the world. If a yarn is marked as mulesing free, that means that no animals were treated this way during the production of the yarn.
