'Stansborough Grey' wool comes from a flock of just 1,200 naturally grey sheep, raised for their particularly lustrous blue-grey fleeces and registered as 'Stansborough Greys'. The wool is 100% NZ grown and processed. In its natural Kokako grey, the yarn features subtle shade variations that give a range of colour intensities.
Lofty and lustrous, "Mithril"™ is a treat in rare breed yarn. This is a long wool that produces a yarn that is very silky and much more lustrous than the average wool yarn that. It has beautiful draping qualities, superior strength, crease-resistance, durability and lustre. It literally shimmers in the light!
