Seller's description

Scottish Shetland wool yarn - 100% Shetland new wool knitting yarn.

- Weight: Fingering, 2 ply woolen spun, equivalent to 4ply. It can be knit held single as fingering weight or held double as aran / worsted weight.
- Unit: 25 grams / 115 yards (105 meters)
- Needle size: 2.5 - 4 mm ( US 2 1/2 - US 6).
- Fibers: 100% pure new Shetland wool
- Care: Hand wash and dry flat

PLEASE NOTE that 1 unit is 25g cake. If you're buying larger quantities and would rather the yarn to be wound up in one cake, please let me know your preference in 'Personalization'. I can wind the yarn in 25/50/100 g cakes.

This yarn comes on cones covered in spinning oil, that ensures better storage and makes it suitable for machine knitting as well as hand knitting. The yarn will show its true qualities only after thorough washing - I recommend washing in warm water with soap or wool wash a few times. This yarn blooms beautifully after washing and the final fabric will have a very soft handle, the colour might also get slightly brighter after washing.

While all the effort has been made to show colours as true to life as possible, actual colour might differ slightly due to difference in device monitor adjustments.

Please buy sufficient amount for your project as later purchase might be of different colour batch.

A small ball of wool with knotted threads, and the thread is not strong; if you pull on it a little, it breaks.
