We recognise the fantastic quality of our local wool and want to make this beautiful, versatile material available through our own range of sustainably produced products.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhy wool from Lofoten?  Here, the animals graze on wild mountainsides and remote ocean islets during the light summer months. Fresh air, salt, seaweed and rich pastures (fertilized by sea birds) all contribute to high quality wool production.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhy choose wool? Wool is a wonderful raw material with qualities other textiles can only dream of. Wool is self-cleaning, flame and bacteria-retardant, temperature regulating and keeps you warm even when wet. Wool fibers are highly elastic and offer excellent shape retention with durability. In addition, wool is a 100% renewable resource.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*We are thrilled to be the only Canadian Retailer of this amazing Norweigan yarn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eGul lunde\u003c\/span\u003e is white lambswool from Vestvågøy in Lofoten dyed with tansy.
