Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Is this yarn soft enough for next-to-skin wear?
A: This is a rustic, traditional wool with incredible character. It softens after washing, but those with very sensitive skin may prefer it for items like hats, mittens, or outerwear rather than cowls or close-fitting collars.
Q: Why is the yardage 88 yards?
A: This listing is part of a special clearance lot, which is why we can offer it at a fantastic price. The 88-yard skein is perfect for smaller projects or accents, so you get just the right amount without waste.
Q: Can I make a sweater with this yarn?
A: You would need multiple skeins (typically 10–12+) for an adult sweater. We recommend this yarn primarily for small accessories, repairs, or as an accent color in larger projects.
