Áhkko is our new worsted 4-ply weaving and knitting yarn. We have reintroduced a yarn that has been absent from the market for a long time, but which generations of Sámi weavers and knitters never stopped talking nostalgic about.
Our new yarn is just the same as your áhkko's (grandma's ) old 4-ply yarn - worsted, with really long fibers in 100% wool. Thin but strong, flexible and durable.
Thickness: 4/18 NM (4500 meters / kg)
Balls: 50 g (225 meters)
Dye Lot Policy
All our yarns are dyed in batches, known as dye lots. When a dye lot is sold out, we move on to the next. This means:
- If you already have skeins from a dye lot: It could either be the one we are currently selling, or it is already sold out and no longer available.
- There are no old dye lots left in stock once we start selling a new one.
- Colors may vary slightly between different dye lots. If you need a larger quantity of yarn for the same project, we recommend purchasing everything at once to minimize differences.
Wool - a good enviromental choiceWool is a good environmental choice. It has a low carbon footprint and can be recycled.
OriginSpun and colores in Italy. Wool top from free grazing, mulesing free sheep of Chile, Punta Arenas.
