The Rowan Wool Yarn Collection
For centuries, knitters have been working with wool, the incredibly warm fibre sourced from a variety of sheep breeds. Wool is known for its softness, breathability, and the way it repels water, making it the ideal choice for our damp British climate.
From the Sheep's Back...
Wool goes through various stages of cleaning and combing before becoming the soft, lustrous and warm yarn we know and love. Always the staple of British knitters, nothing delights more than a true wool that's beautiful to knit with and a joy to wear.
