FÍOR

Lanolin-Rich Wool Yarn | DK Weight | Undyed Natural Cream

Fíor is a wool yarn brought back to its natural state.

Spun from 100% virgin Peruvian wool and carefully rebalanced with lanolin after spinning, this yarn retains the protective qualities naturally present in raw wool. Lanolin enhances softness, breathability, and moisture resistance, creating a yarn ideally suited to garments worn close to the skin.

Soft yet resilient, Fíor offers gentle elasticity, structure, and durability. Its natural lanolin content provides subtle water resistance and helps the fibre remain clean and fresh between washes.

This yarn is especially valued for baby garments, wool soakers and traditional knitting, where natural fibre performance is essential.

Every stage of production—from fibre to finished yarn—is completed in Peru, supporting regional fibre traditions and ensuring consistent quality.

HAND-SPUN NETTLE YARN

Himalayan Nettle Fibre | Naturally Undyed | Hand-Spun in Nepal

Our Himalayan nettle yarn is hand-harvested from wild nettle plants growing in Nepal and spun by hand using traditional methods. Untreated and naturally processed using only water and wood ash, it retains the integrity and character of the original fibre.

The yarn carries the quiet irregularity and variation inherent to hand-spun plant fibres. Its natural colours range from soft grey and beige to warm, earthy tones, reflecting the fibre’s origin.

Historically known as “poor man’s linen,” nettle fibre shares many of linen’s qualities — strength, breathability, and durability — whilst offering its own distinct texture and presence.

This yarn is entirely plant-based, biodegradable and produced through ethical small-scale production supporting rural families and traditional fibre knowledge.

Weight options: Thin and medium weight
Length: approx. 265 m per 100 g
