Description

Pinta Hand-dyed is a wonderfully light yarn made from 100% natural fibers. The color palette matches the very popular Pinta perfectly, and both yarns can be combined perfectly with each other as they are identical except for the coloring.

The composition of Pinta Hand-Dyed is exactly like Pinta, super unusual. 60% fine merino wool from Patagonia is spun with 20% mulberry silk and 20% ramie.

Ramie is a type of nettle that is harvested in a particularly environmentally friendly way. The fibers of ramie are long and robust. This makes it a good alternative to synthetic fibers.

Pinta Hand-Dyed has excellent heat-regulating properties, a fine shine thanks to the silk and great elasticity. It is soft and cuddly.

The yarn is durable and biodegradable - a real all-rounder.

The hand coloring results in a beautiful moving image, the colors look bright and vibrant. The harmonious color palette allows you to combine them particularly well and of course they go perfectly with the Pinta colors.

Each color is individually composed from different base colors. Since the color is mixed and dyed by hand for each batch, small deviations between individual batches, but also within a batch, are possible. To compensate for this, we recommend knitting with two strands alternately. This helps to avoid breaks. Please note that due to the uniqueness of each batch and each strand, the product image may differ from the wool you receive.

Each strand is unique!
