Drops Alaska

Drops Alaska is a yarn made from 100% untreated wool. This means that the fibers have only been washed and not exposed to any chemical treatment before being dyed. This highlights the characteristics of the wool and allows for a better structure of the yarn itself. Drops Alaska is a quality 3-ply yarn: it is one of the classic yarns of the Drops collection. In fact, it still enjoys the same popularity today as when it was launched in the 1980s. Drops Alaska is also available in mixed colors, as the wool was produced by carding the colors together before spinning them, and this produces a so-called Mix effect. The yarn has obtained the Oeko-Tex® certification (STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX® 25.3.0099) Class 1, which certifies that the yarn is free of any harmful chemical component. Class 1 is the highest level and therefore Drops Alaska can also be used by children.

Feltable.
