NORDLYS (Northern Lights), plant dyed white spæl sheep, 50/100g
Northern Lights is the yarn SAND dyed first with tansy and then with indigo, to create a unique colour. Wool from Hvit spælsau consists of shiny cover hairs that protect the sheep from weather and wind, and a soft and warm bottom wool. Both of these fiber types are carded together and spun into yarn. It produces a golden, warm and robust yarn that is well suited for sweaters and mittens.
Some loose wool hairs will appear after the first wash. You should knit a test piece, wash and dry it and then measure/calculate the number of stitches/needle thickness before larger projects.
Same thickness as SAND, STORM, FULL STORM, MOSE (moss), JORD (soil), SNØ (snow) and ROGN (roy).
