Did you know that qiviut, the fine undercoat of the prehistoric muskox has been proven to be the softest fibre in the world - it is 8 times warmer than wool. It is difficult to believe that this rugged native of the Arctic tundra can produce such a soft and most luxurious fiber.

Qiviut will retain heat even when wet! It is hypoallergenic, odorless and will not shrink in hot water. Best of all Qiviut does not irritate even the most sensitive skin and it will provide breathable comfort in warmer weather.

If someone were to put a touch of Qiviut fibre in your hand with your eyes closed – you would not feel it - incredible! Availability is limited and pricey. This is due to the small harvest and the challenging task of removing the long guard hairs from the superfine fleece before processing it into fibres for sophisticated artisans and designers, royalty and celebrities.

This raw fibre is like no other available today and word is slowly getting out to fashion designers. Everyone should knit at least one item out of this heavenly yarn or choose one of our hand-knit timeless treasures – they only get better with age.

100% quivit, 25gm, 175m.
This quivit lends itself well to different size needles for a different look.
