This yarn proudly showcases the beauty of 100% New Zealand Perendale wool. Perendale sheep are a breed developed in New Zealand, and their wool is something special. It’s lofty, springy, and has a delightful spiral crimp. Translation: knitting or crocheting with this yarn results in projects that are thick, bouncy, and oh-so-comfortable.
Rustic and Earthy Tones: Imagine the colours of a serene countryside—rustic browns, earthy greens, and cozy neutrals. Shepherd Perendale 8 Ply comes in a range of these warm, natural shades. Whether you’re creating a sweater, a scarf, or a blanket, these colours evoke a sense of connection to nature.
Versatility: While it’s an 8-ply yarn, don’t limit yourself! Yes, it’s perfect for sweaters and blankets, but it’s equally at home in accessories like hats, mittens, and cowls. The thickness and bounce make it a joy to work with.
Care Instructions: Treat it gently, like a cherished heirloom (pun intended). Hand wash only—imagine giving your yarn a spa day with gentle soap and lukewarm water. No bleach, no spin-drying, and definitely no wringing. Dry it flat in the shade, and if you’re feeling fancy, a warm iron (but not too hot!). Dry cleaning? Well, it’s an option, but let’s keep it cozy and low-key.
Made in Australia: Yep, this yarn hails from Down Under. So when you work with it, you’re practically channelling Aussie sheep vibes.
