Possum Fur and Merino Wool Knitting Yarn

Possum Fur
The unique property of Possum fur is that each fibre is hollow. This gives excellent insulation qualities ensuring that possum fur and wool garments are lighter compared to other heavier knitted items.

Merino Wool
From the finest New Zealand Merino wool ideal for knitting, weaving, embroidery, felting and embellishment of garments. All Touch Yarns and colours are designed by Marnie Kelly, inspired by the stark beauty of thyme fields, mountains and the historic goldfields of Central Otago in the South Island of New Zealand.

Central Otago also boasts origins of some of the world's finest quality wool and mohair. With sharp, seasonal climate variations and low rainfall, conditions are well suited for growing the high quality fibre used in Touch Yarns.
