Snefnug
SNEFNUG
ENVIRONMENT - SUSTAINABILITY – ANIMAL WELFARE - LIGHTWEIGHT – SOFTNESS - QUALITY – NATURAL MATERIAL
Snefnug (“snowflake”) is a super soft, light, airy but thick yarn entirely made from natural materials in a luscious blend of 55% baby alpaca, 10% extra fine merino wool, and 35% cotton.
Snefnug is manufactured at an Italian family owned spinning mill where the environment and animal welfare are taken into account, which of course means that the merino wool is mulesing free.
Snefnug has a cotton mesh tube as the core with a luscious blend of merino and baby alpaca blown into it, making it a hard wearing but super soft and exclusive yarn.
Snefnug is perfect for baby and children’s knits as well as the trending oversized adult knits such as sweaters, cardigans, scarfs, and beanies made on big needles.
With 33 beautiful colors to choose from, there is plenty of options for putting your favorite color palette together.
If you want a bit of bling in your project you can easily combine Snefnug and Stjernestøv (“stardust”). Stjernestøv is similar to Snefnug but has a mesh tube with glitter.
Snefnug is Bulky weight yarn with 4-6 mm as the recommended needle size and a recommended gauge of 12-16 sts and about 24 rows per 10 cm.
Handwashing the finished project is recommended. Use a wool detergent and lay flat to dry. Machine-washing can make the finished project shrink by 7%, but it will stretch in use.
It is also recommended to knit ribbing a bit tighter as these too will stretch in use.
I wish you a pleasant experience with Snefnug – a CaMaRose yarn created with the greatest care.
