Unelma yarn is super soft, bulky-weight and 100% Finnish lamb wool. Fluffy yarn is treated very gently so it still contains wool's natural lanolin. Unelma is perfect for big, fluffy hats and other winter accessories. Also suitable for Icelandic sweaters.
The yarn has a slight twist to it so it shouldn't break while knitting.
Lambs are born around the change from winter to spring and grow during summer on the pasture. In autumn their wool is sheared for the first time and that wool is used for our high quality fluffy yarns.
You can find patterns for woolly hats that use Unelma in Finnish on our website or replace Alafosslopi with Unelma in Icelandic knits.
*when changing skeins you can rub the ends of same colored yarn together between your hands so you don't need to tie them together.
