Shetland Wool by Harrisville Designs
This wool is a blend of an Australian fine wool and a hearty New Zealand wool that gives the yarn it’s luster. Shetland is spun more tightly on the spinning frames (higher turns per inch) so it is highly durable and will wear better and better every year. Shetland refers to the size of the yarn and not the fiber content. 100% Virgin Wool.
