With straightforward earthiness and deep sophistication, Purl Soho's Worsted Twist pays homage to a classic 2-ply farm yarn. An absolutely beautiful 100% merino wool, it is Fair Trade Certified, which means the mill that makes it is committed to fair and safe working conditions, as well as a respect for the environment, with low-impact production techniques, a responsible consumption of resources, and the reuse, recycling, and reduction of raw materials. It also adheres to the European REACH regulation, a standard to protect human health and the environment from harmful chemicals. Worsted Twist is as soft as a baby lamb's ear, perfect for everything you wear close: cowls, scarves, hats, mittens, sweaters, and blankets. Although we no longer sell this yarn, we do have lots of great Worsted Twist substitutes. Check out these similar yarns!
