WHAT’S THE STORY?
Us yarn lovers know no good wool should go to waste. That’s where Heal the Wool steps in. Every earth-loving ball is crafted using excess fibres that would otherwise be lost to landfill. We turn ‘trash to treasure’ and re-spin to create a unique, eco-friendly, 100% upcycled yarn that’s a dream to stitch.
80 metres/ 87 yards per 200-gram roll. WPI 5 / Super Chunky
SOMETHING YOU SHOULD KNOW
These upcycled skeins are made from leftover tops and waste generated whilst spinning yarn in the supplier’s own factory over in Peru. It’s then grouped into similar colours and spun into the unique, limited edition yarn you know and love.
Due to the upcycled nature of this yarn, we can't guarantee that the same colours will be back in stock. Please make sure you have enough to complete your project!
