DONEGAL WOOLEN SPUN by Lang Yarns is a worsted yarn made from 100% virgin wool (mulesing-free). These characteristics make it a very versatile yarn, suitable for knitting sweaters, cardigans, hats, scarves or winter accessories, as well as for creating textured and traditional patterns.
Made in the Donegal region of Ireland using traditional techniques and machinery, DONEGAL WOOLEN SPUN is a woolen-spun yarn that captivates with its lightness, warmth and soft feel. Its particular structure, obtained through a loose spinning of the fibers, traps small air pockets that enhance its insulating properties while maintaining a beautiful lightness.
Its other asset lies in its subtly blended shades. Unlike traditional tweed yarns marked by contrasting color flecks, DONEGAL WOOLEN SPUN features harmoniously blended hues that bring depth, richness, and vibrancy to your projects.
Thanks to its excellent stitch definition and naturally grippy texture, this yarn particularly highlights cables, textured stitches, and Fair Isle jacquard patterns. It also provides good drape to knits while maintaining the comfort and authenticity characteristic of Donegal wools.
