The Botanic Wool

Feel the nature in your hands through our exclusive Botanic Wool. It is the perfect blend of fine highland wool and Tencel. A sustainable fibre that comes from a botanical origin, Tencel is soft, breathable and hypoallergenic.

It can be used with a variety of needle sizes to create different effects and styles and is particularly known for its suitability for lacework.
