Gotland Heather Line from JaggerSpun: Gold Dust
A variation of our classic Heathers, Gotland Heather is spun from 50% Gotland wool blended with 50% top dyed wool. Gotland sheep are native to Sweden, and have lustrous, silvery grey wool. Our Gotland wool is processed and combed in the UK, has a dry hand and creates a subtle haze when spun, while maintaining superior stitch definition.
Heather is a top-dyed worsted spun 100% medium grade wool yarn. The heather effect is created by blending together many different shades to achieve each unique yarn color.
Available in 2/8 fingering and 3/8 sport.
These yarns will loft and become softer after washing.
