This sport weight yarn is undyed. Mountain Meadows Sport Weight yarn is a 2 ply yarn with 200 yards. It is a 2 oz skein. Get creative with some dye or leave it natural. Either way it is absolutely gorgeous! This would be a great yarn to experiment with dyeing a heavier weight sock yarn.
Welcome to Mountain Meadow Wool
Mountain
Meadow Wool Mill is located at the foot of the Big Horn Mountains in
Buffalo, Wyoming. Our area is rich in western history, from Indian
wars and outlaws to cattlemen and sheepherders. Our fiber factory
begins in Wyoming’s rugged mountain climate. Because it is so fine,
Mountain Meadow Wool is silky soft to the touch, insulates much better,
breathes far more effectively, and feels delightful next to your skin.
Each
year, we procure the best fiber from the best growers in the West. We
then process it at our own fiber mill where it is transformed into
extraordinary roving and yarns.
Mountain Meadow Wool is dedicated to the preservation
of the open spaces of the West. One of the best ways to preserve open
space is to preserve a ranch, therefore 10% of every purchase will go
directly to the rancher who produced this fine wool. Thank you for your
purchase!
Fibers for our roving
and yarn are washed and spun with citrus/vegetable-based soaps and oils
rather than petroleum-based products. No chemicals are used to bleach,
shrinkproof or mothproof the yarn. This gentle process preserves the
natural qualities of the wool. Our yarn is ultra soft and has a
wonderful feel. We are proud to bring you this very fine product grown
on the high plains of Wyoming.
