Australian Organic Wool yarns are spun in New Zealand from certified organic or biodynamic Australian merino fleece wool and are processed in accordance with organic standards. They are dyed with low impact metal free dyes.

Australian Organic Wool yarns are made from 21.5 micron merino fleece wool making them soft enough to be worn directly against the skin without scratching. The yarns have a slightly increased twist to reduce pilling.

The hand dyers hanks come in 4 ply and 8 ply, and either in 100 grams or 200 grams hanks. The yarn is also suitable for felting.

TIP: If you're using this yarn undyed, we highly recommend pre-washing the hank first before knitting or crocheting as the wool blooms significantly after a wash. Your gauge will be more accurate that way.
