Merino Yak

The Merino Yak yarn by Laines du Nord, entirely Made in Italy, is a precious yarn consisting of certified Mulesing free merino and precious Yak hair very similar to cashmere for its qualities. It is a fiber that is obtained from the yak's hairstyle and therefore its production can be defined as ecological.

During spinning it is twisted with three plies to obtain a medium-thickness and very soft yarn. This variegated composition gives rise to a color chart characterized by dusty colors and mottled with delicate light-dark streaks. Suitable for making any garment, from sweaters, scarves, wide collars, to jackets to hats. The merino wool used is certified Mulesing free.

* Do not forget that the display of colors may vary from one screen to another and the shades may also vary from one color bath to another (check the wrapper on the ball of yarn).
