Hillesvag Vidde

$15.75

VIdde is another light and airy yarn from Hillesvag coming from Norwegian lambs wool, providing a clear color when dyed (as compared to the Varde which comes from a particular breed of sheep having light and dark wool, producing a more heathered yarn when dyed)

In the dye series for Vidde lamb wool yarn, we have only used GOTS-approved dyes. GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) requires that dyes are biodegradable and non-toxic. The finished product may not contain allergens or residues of hazardous chemicals. GOTS-approved dye is allowed in organic production of yarn and textiles.

200m (218 yds)/100g skeins. This yarn would be considered a Worsted Weight yarn.

2-ply, 100% Norwegian wool.

Supplied in 100 g (2 x 50 g) skeins.

Gauge: 18 sts x 24 rounds = 10 x 10 cm on needles size 4.5 – 5 mm.
