The base of these threads is Spanish Merino from @dlana.es I have decided that it is Merino since for an eternal thread I want something that is history, heritage and culture of my roots.

The rest of it’s composition is lotus flower fiber, and it is from the Samatoa group.

Samatoa is a social enterprise that focuses on the values of fair trade, sustainable development and ethical production.

Its fibers are of own production and extraction, following traditional Cambodian methods.

In 2012, Samatoa was awarded the UNESCO Prize for Excellence for its lotus flower fabric.
