LANGYARNS LOFT is a carded yarn which is handmade in Switzerland. The wool comes from Patagonia from Corriedale sheep. In a carded yarn the fibers are not combed.
The historic machine used for LOFT is almost 100 years old. Because of the construction used at that time, the wool flocks are not perfectly broken up and parallelized. So the wool fibers still retain some of their resistant character as they were grown. Likewise, from time to time, vegetal remains from the wide plains of Patagonia can still be found in the yarn. This originality leaves the wool fibers their individuality and gives the yarn a lot of volume softness and a certain degree of imperfection in the twist and melange colorfulness. Enjoy knitting this unique natural yarn!
