Yarn Information
Made with 30% naturally grown alpaca fibres and 70% certified organic British wool, this beautiful yarn is available in a range of soft shades inspired by misty mountains. This soft yarn is comfortable worn next to the skin making it ideal for cardigans, sweaters, scarves and hats.
•
The British wool used to make Eden yarn is organic. The GOTS certified raw material is grown in the UK by British farmers who adhere to strict ethical standards and is graded by hand by the British Wool Board. It is then scoured, spun and dyed in the UK.
•
100% of our wool comes from non-mulesed sheep.
•
The alpaca used in the Eden yarns is sourced from Peru. 75% of the alpaca population can be found in Peru, where flocks roam freely in the Andes mountains. Classified as hair and not wool, the smooth texture of alpaca fibres provides a natural light-reflecting lustre, resulting in a soft and silky yarn that feels luxurious to knit with.

I love the pattern. Ordering and downloading was easy. I haven’t made it yet, but after reading through the pattern the instructions are clear. For a novice I think it will provide a great learning challenge and enhance my skills as a knitter.
The ordering & download were easy. I haven’t made it yet, but after reading through the pattern it looks well written and presented and easy enough for a relatively novice knitter to understand.
Everything arrived in wonderful shape and was exactly as I hoped it would be. I wasn't surprised -- I've ordered from this organization for years and years.
I love Serena it is a perfect year round yarn. The drape is always beautiful and it has great stitch definition. Not to mention that every color produced by Manos is magic. The staff at Fairmount Fibers is always kind and amazing! Thanks so much for my recent order! Christy Pyles
