A natural classic, Yonder is 50% highland wool and 50% alpaca, with all the knit-able qualities that touch a knitter’s heart!

• 3 strands plied together in a lofty spin, Yonder breathes and blooms when you knit, a classic worsted weight yarn that is plump, generous, and very satisfying on your needles!

• You’ll love Yonder’s robust and earthy feel, with a resilience in the hand that comes from the highland wool’s bounce alongside alpaca’s supple softness.

• Yonder’s wonderful toothy feel makes your knitting a joy, beautiful in colorwork, textured patterns, and plain stockinette, alike.

• And then there’s the color! With an earthy palette of heathered colors dyed over the natural colors grown by the sheep and alpaca, Yonder has a rich and varied palette… From Mountain Rose to Kelp Forest and Winter Sage, each hue is inspired by the magnificent depth of nature’s own spectrum.

• Yonder is Peru Fair Trade Certified, which means the mill that makes it is committed to fair and safe working conditions, as well as a respect for the environment, with low-impact production techniques, a responsible consumption of resources, and the reuse, recycling, and reduction of raw materials.

• It is also OEKO-TEX certified and adheres to European REACH regulations that protect human health and the environment from harmful chemicals… Nice!

• Looking for more yarn like this? Plenty, made with the finest merino wool in the world, Nigh Aran, our plush 100% cashmere yarn, and Big Mountain Cormo Worsted, our undyed Cormo wool yarn from Montana, all knit up at a similar gauge… Great yarn substitutes! And if you’re looking for a plant-based (and therefore machine-washable!) option, cast on with our cotton and linen June Worsted yarn.
