Plover - Long-lasting Norwegian wool (33,5 micron)

A proprietary blend of wool produced in Norway from Norwegian sheep.

Due to this yarn’s unique qualities and consistent popularity, this wool quality has been part of our collection since 1939!

Norwegian wool is one of the world’s most animal-friendly textile fibers, thanks to the sheep’s natural mountain life. This yarn provides an authentic look, known for its uniquely crisp appearance and durability.

Garments knitted with Plover need to be hand washed.
