Sandnes Garn

This material blend gives the yarn the absorbent and soft properties of cotton and viscose, combined with the cool feel of linen. Shiny viscose combined with matte linen gives the yarn an exciting texture and surface.

Merino wool not only provides excellent insulation, but the structure of its fibers also wicks moisture away from the body, retaining warmth even when damp. Wool can absorb up to 30% of its own weight in water before it feels wet.

The yarn is superwash treated, so it can withstand frequent machine washing.

Our suppliers guarantee that our wool does not come from sheep that have been subjected to mulesing.

Mohair is wool from the Angora goat. This goat breed has long, silky-smooth, and curly wool fibers. Ordinary wool is added to give the yarn resilience and volume. The silk adds strength and shine while holding the fibers together when the yarn is brushed. The result is a soft, light and airy yarn with a fuzzy texture.

For machine washing, we recommend that all wool garments be washed separately on a wool program, to ensure the gentlest treatment. Centrifuge well and dry the garment flat, preferably on top of a towel. Never use a laundry bag when washing hand-knitted wool garments. This creates friction that can cause the garment to felt.
