Olann Bhog is made from 100% pure wool. The yarn is fully processed in Peru, from raising and shearing of the sheep to the finished yarn.
Once done, we apply the final colour touch, using only sustainable, no impact dyeing methods and organic ingredients. Corrie is a joy to dye and it has a beautiful saturated, yet semi solid colour uptake.
