Knitters and crocheters, meet DROPS Alaska - this is some seriously nice worsted weight yarn that's been a favorite since the 80s! It's 100% wool with that classic triple-stranded construction that makes it durable and warm. Each 1.8 ounce ball gives you about 77 yards, and it works up beautifully on US 8 needles.
The cool thing about this yarn is it's untreated wool - meaning the fibers are just washed, not chemically processed, which keeps all the natural wool qualities intact. It's got great stitch definition and that traditional wool texture that seasoned crafters love. The gauge is about 17 stitches per 4 inches, making it perfect for sweaters, hats, scarves, and all your cold-weather projects. It does contain some mixed colors that give it a lovely heathered effect. Just remember to hand wash in cold water and lay flat to dry. This is quality European-made yarn that creates projects meant to last for years!
