A new yarn from Swans Island!  100% made in USA of 75% Rambouillet wool, and 25% Alpaca (both animals are residents of the USA).  This woolen spun yarn embodies rustic sophistication.  Alpaca fiber from small East Coast farms is blended with Rambouillet wool from the Erk Ranch in South Dakota, where raising sheep has been a family tradition for over 100 years.  These quality fibers are scoured, de-haired then carded and spun at a historic New England mill.  Hand dyed in Maine, as you can see this yarn is an all American product, and it looks great too!  We love the tweedy look and feel! 

 This is a true worsted weight wool, and has 210 yards per 80 grams.  The suggested gauge is 4.5 sts per inch on a size 7 needle.  Hand wash.

We are happy to special order this yarn if you need at least 5, and are wiling to be patient, because some colors can be on back-order for quite some time.
