yarns

Last fall when I traveled to the Wool Festival at Taos, I discovered a remarkable cormo yarn from Elsa Wool Company.
The simple, pure honesty of her yarns, paired with a buttery softness and delicate texture, enchanted me...

...I think this is the most beautiful yarn ever. So soft and alive and great, great colour!

It is nothing short of the most divine yarn I have ever worked with.....

All of my yarns are made from Cormo wool,
which is fine, long-stapled for its diameter, elastic, and exceptionally soft.
My yarn colors are the natural colors of white wool and blended white, black, and gray wools.
Black and gray sheep fleeces, after months of exposure to the sun, are tipped with a layer of rust brown and tan;
so the color we call "gray" is a brownish gray, and the darker grays (with more black/gray/brown/tan wool) are more brown.

• Woolen-spun yarns are lofty, warm, and absorbent.
• Worsted-spun yarns are dense and strong and smooth.
