- 10 balls - Worsted Weight (100% Peruvian Highland Wool; 110 yards/50g per ball), 1100 yards/500g total.
Our classic worsted wool yarn is spun and plied carefully to achieve a wonderfully balanced twist. A sturdy yet soft yarn with excellent stitch definition and heirloom durability. Peruvian sheep are a cross between Corriedale (for the sturdiness) and Merino (for the softness), producing a strong fiber with an excellent softness quotient for a wide variety of uses. Felts beautifully.
- 100% Peruvian wool: Made from 100% Peruvian Highland wool, Knit Picks Wool of the Andes is the perfect yarn for projects that will get used daily, like your favorite sweater, hat, or blanket. Peruvian Highland wool is a strong fiber that has an excellent balance of structure, loft, and drape. As a "sticky" wool–meaning the fibers grip lightly together, Knit Picks Wool of the Andes is an ideal choice for both stranded colorwork and intarsia because stitches "stick" in place, won’t shift or loosen as you work.
