Traveling to us from lovely Denmark, Knitting for Olive yarns are ethically created with high quality, natural fibers. Founded by a mother & daughter, the family business is passionate about responsible yarns that inspire & bring joy to knitters around the world. Responsible, eco-friendly & ethically sourced No Waste Wool is a blend of 50% recycled wool & 50% Extrafine, traceable, non-mulesed Merino wool. The wool is Global Recycle Standard & Responsible Wool Standard certified. All of the recycled wool is waste from the production of other wools that receives a new life in this lovely yarn. The plied, fingering weight yarn has a heritage wool hand & is gorgeous knit into accessories & garments. It is also wonderful combined with Knitting for Olive Soft Silk Mohair to add extra softness & fluffiness, as well as depth of color. The gentle halo adds a beautiful, rich character to sweaters, cardigans, hats, cowls & scarves. The relaxing palette includes a curated selection of wearable, nature-inspired neutrals. *The Merino wool in this yarn is RMS-certified (Responsible Wool Standard ensures animals, farmers & environment are treated with respect) Fiber Content: 50% Recycled Wool, 50% Traceable, Non-mulesed, Extrafine Merino Wool (Oeko-Tex Standard 100) Weight: Super Fine/ Fingering Yardage: 246 yards Ball/Skein Weight: 50g Care: Hand wash cool, lay flat to dry Needle Size: US 2.5 (3 mm) needle Knitting Stitch Gauge: 7 stitches per 1"/ 28 stitches per 4" Knitting Row Gauge: 38 rows per 4"
