Woolen-spun yarns are made directly from carded fiber, which creates a bit of a \"fuzzy\" finish compared to worsted-spun yarns, which are combed first to align all the fibers for a smoother, denser yarn. Another difference is that woolen-spun yarns trap more air, making them lighter, loftier, and warmer than worsted-spun yarns. Woolen-spun yarns also tend to be very elastic and bouncy and, like Spindle, bloom beautifully after washing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIt’s available in 17 beautiful colors, each recalling the yarn's origin, from the green hills of Ireland to the bright flowers in the meadow, from the woodpile outside the cottage to the embers of the hearth within.

Woolen-spun yarns are made directly from carded fiber, which creates a bit of a \"fuzzy\" finish compared to worsted-spun yarns, which are combed first to align all the fibers for a smoother, denser yarn. Another difference is that woolen-spun yarns trap more air, making them lighter, loftier, and warmer than worsted-spun yarns. Woolen-spun yarns also tend to be very elastic and bouncy and, like Hedgerow, bloom beautifully after washing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExplore our palette of 17 super inspiring colors, each with its own story to tell, from the quiet song of House Wren to festive Fuchsia Rose!
