Brida Icelandic Yarn
Brida Icelandic Yarn
This is a handspun cake of 100% Icelandic wool from Brida, one of our Icelandic ewes.Brida is a stunning Icelandic ewe, who is one of our flock matriarchs. She is a fierce mother and leads our flock in and out every day, always searching and finding a breach in the fence or better forage, where ever that might be. She is alert and protective of her young and suspicious of anything on 2 legs.
We keep the tog and the thel together in her fleece and you can find the longer,honey colored tog woven through the white and downy thel fibers. Her soft yarn is the color of thick cream.
This is handspun 2 ply DK to heavy weight . I have several cakes of various weights and yardage available.
Minimally processed, by a local mill and spun at home. We do not coat our sheep so, this yarn may have a ‘bit’ of vegetable matter, guaranteeing to you our commitment to the most natural yarn we can produce with the lowest carbon footprint.
