New MExico Organic Wool This 100% organic wool is raised in New Mexico and certified organic by the NM Organic Commodity Commision. The processing of the wool is done here in Vermont and is certified organic by the Vermont Organic Farmers. It is washed and spun using non-petoleum soaps and oil and no chemicals are used to mothproof, shrink-proof or remove chaff. This d.k. weight yarn knits at 6 sts/inch. It is a fine wool (tho' not necessarily merino) which retains a lot of bounce or elasticity in the yarn, in part because of the gentle handling of the fiber in its processing.Each 2 oz dk skein as 180 yards. It is available in white only at this time, tho' we are using natural dyes to create some great colors which will be available in hat and wristwarmer/mitten kits in the next couple of months. Price: $11.25/skein |
