Rauma Vandre Yarn

  New from Rauma is Vandre yarn. Aptly named with the Norwegian word for hiking, this yarn consists of 100% Norwegian wool, of which 50% is from the Spælsau sheep breed.  The long fibers from the spelled sheep make Vandre a durable yarn. Therefore, Vandre is particularly suitable for socks, hiking clothes, and workwear.  BREED 100% Norwegian Wool LENGTH: ~131 yards (120 meters) / 50g ball YARN THICKNESS: Worsted GAUGE: 20 sts/4" on 3.5mm (US 4) needles PACKAGE approx. 50g balls Made in Norway 100% Norwegian sheep to mill Care Instructions from Rauma: Garments knitted in Vandre should be machine washed before use.
