All of the Australian Merino fibre in Fibresmith Hand Dyed yarns complies with the Australian wool industry administered National Wool Declaration Schemes. It is sourced from farms where high standards of animal welfare are required and the sheep have not been mulesed.
This is an untreated, luxury yarn with an exceptionally soft handle. Longer staple fibres (around 3.5 inches/85mm) are selected to reduce the pilling that is ubiquitous with Merino yarns. The fleece is then spun at a highly regarded Italian mill for exceptional twist and quality.
