Most current lots are 75% Navajo and Domestic fine Rambouillet wool and 25% Mohair. Older lots vary, labels have details.

Our yarns will dramatically soften and fluff up with washing and use. We actually throw finished sweaters into a cold gentle wash cycle with very good results. Please note that your monitor may display yarn colors differently than they appear in real life.

A blend of Native/Non-Native American fine wool Rambouillet and Texas mohair.
