FIBRE
Rambouillet (also known as the French Merino) has similar characteristics to typical merino fibre, however it has more of a matte look. The fibre offers great elasticity, can be worn comfortably against your skin, and has been described as having an almost cotton-like feel with its lofty airiness.
PROCESS
All Annapolis Fibre Co yarn begins as raw fleece from the sheep of Linc Farm, which is carded, spun and dyed by us right here in Nova Scotia's Annapolis Valley. Aside from owning and shearing the sheep ourselves, we are creating each skein from start to finish.
CARE
All items made with untreated (non-superwash) wool should be hand washed in cold water, and laid flat to dry. Spot cleaning will help prolong the life of your knitwear!
