Knitting for Olive's No Waste Wool is made from 50% recycled wool and 50% extra fine merino wool.
The yarn is traceable and non-mulesed, is very soft and has a beautiful and woolen texture.
The recycled wool is a waste product from the production of other wool yarns. KfO collect the excess wool fibers, blend it with our merino wool and spin the wool blend into a new yarn. This way they use the wool fibers that would otherwise be wasted, and reduce waste in yarn productions.
The 50% merino wool prevents the yarn from breaking easily, which is often the case with pure recycled yarns.
The yarn is produced in Italy. KfO's spinning mill follows ethical, technical and environmental standards, creating yarns free from harmful chemicals.
