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.
Finn wool has less crimp than Rambouillet, and adds some luster, however the amount of Finn in this batch of wool may be too small to notice a significant difference from our 100% Rambouillet.
Kid Mohair adds strength and smoothness to the Rambouillet, as well as some extra softness and luster.
PROCESS All Annapolis Fibre Co yarn begins as raw fleece from the sheep of Linc Farm, along with kid mohair from another farm in Nova Scotia, which is carded, spun and dyed by us right here in Nova Scotia's Annapolis Valley. Aside from owning and shearing the sheep and goats ourselves, we are creating each skein and roving bump 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!
