Skadi from Hey Mama Wolf

Skadi is a 3-ply DK-weight yarn made from Merino d’Arles GOTS-certified wool. Merino d”Arles is a breed of domestic sheep that originates from the region around Arles in southern France. This breed is renowned for its fine and soft wool. Due to the high crimp of its fleece, yarn spun from Merino d’Arles has pockets of trapped air, providing insulation which results in warmer garments. The wool from this breed is exceptionally fluffy, bouncy, and soft.

Quality and sustainability are very important to Hey Mama Wolf which is why they have their GOTS certification. It guarantees best practices for the environment, sheep, and even the people involved in the yarn’s production.

Knitting with Skadi is an absolute delight. It is lofty, light and as soft as a cloud. It is perfect for sweaters, hats, and scarves.
