More info

Due to the nature of raw washed fleece not chemically processed, expect some flecks of vegetable matter within the yarn. Great art yarn to incorporate with your knitted project for edges and cuffs - it would even make fun doll hair.

Weight and yarnds are approximate. Yarn currently available to Canadian customers.
