The wool for this yarn was grown in a small village in Northern Michigan by the Tower Family where the farm also produces eggs and sells organic coffee. The sheep are loved by this sweet family growing quality wool to make beautiful yarn. 

Targhee Polypay Wool 95%, Silk 5%. 

Woolen Spun in Michigan

DK Weight, approximately 3.0 oz, approximately 250 yards.    

This yarn is soft, squishy, lofty and lightweight thanks to being woolen spun. It takes color well, while the fiber's matte surface gives the colors a soft, slightly muted quality. 

Consider this yarn an "Everyday Luxury"-for sweaters, shawls, cowls, hats, etc-that feels like an indulgence yet is sturdy enough for your everyday activities. 

Pattern suggestion:

Sophie Shawl

Minor bleeding may occur on first wash. Each skein is unique, purchase multi-skein projects together & alternate rows. Colors are shown as accurately as possible but Monitors will vary.

You can prolong the life of all textiles and colors by washing by hand in cool water and avoiding exposure to strong, direct, prolonged light. For yarn, air drying on a flat surface will prevent stretching and sagging. A neutral wool wash is recommended. I currently use non scented Eucalan or Orvus.
