Yarn Description
Finnish wool doesn’t aim for uniform smoothness or industrial perfection. Instead, it embraces character. Tiny irregularities, the life of the fibers, can be seen and felt, and that’s what makes each knit interesting and unique. It gives texture, rhythm, and lasting strength. It breathes with the wearer and softens over time, becoming even more comfortable with age.
•
The wool Tukuwool uses is primarily from Finnish Landrace sheep, with some shades — namely the gray bases — containing rare Kainuu Grey wool. Both are native Finnish breeds with distinct qualities.
•
The shine of Finnish Landrace wool is exceptional, its curl is alive, and its texture is soft, almost silky. At its best, it rivals Merino in softness and shine while maintaining its Finnish character: honest, strong, and warm. The Kainuu Grey, on the other hand, adds loft, bounce, and a luminous, broad crimp. It felts easily, something often a valued feature in sweaters and accessories. Together, these two types of wool create yarn with a beautiful structure.
•
Finnish wool’s natural color range is also part of its charm: white, brown, gray and black fleeces can be blended or used as-is. These shades add depth and richness before the yarn is even dyed.
•
Two shades of Tukuwool DK are undyed and created by blending together natural shades of sheep's wool: 01 Sake and 03 Auri. These are indicated with an asterisk (*).
•
The heathered shades of Tukuwool DK (marked with an "H" in their color name) are overdyed on Auri, the natural blend of Finnsheep and Kainuu Grey wools, to give the colors a superb depth.

Let customers speak for us
from 100 reviewsI really like this pattern and learning the Swedish Weave stitch. Hoping to finish this cowl in time to give as a Christmas gift to a good friend. Thank you for the wonderful design!
Easy to follow instructions. I made this for my cousin who feels cold round her neck, she loved the pockets.
I made these mitts in the same colour as the beanie to match, I made it for my cousin's wife birthday, and she lived them both.
This hat was easy to make and fun with its points looking like cat ears.
Haven't started the shawl yet but its next in line project wise, I'm going to make it for my mum.
loved this pattern, enough texture to make it interesting and rows and rows of plain knitting ideal for knitting when you're tired, but can't sit idle
They gave me one of the colors I asked for! Thanks guys!!
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.
