Knitting for Olive NO WASTE WOOL

No Waste Wool is a sustainable wool yarn made of 50% recycled wool and 50% of extrafine Merino, traceable and non-mulesed.

The yarn is very soft and has a beautiful rustic texture. 

‘The recycled wool is a waste product from the production of other wool yarns. We collect the excess wool fibers, blend it with our merino wool and spin the wool blend into a new yarn. This way we use the wool fibres that would otherwise be wasted, and reduce waste in yarn productions.’ Knitting For Olive

The 50% merino wool prevents the yarn from breaking easily, which is often the case with pure recycled yarns. 

The yarn is produced in Italy. The spinning mill follows ethical, technical and environmental standards, creating yarns free from harmful chemicals.
