American Cormo

With their first mill-spun yarn Stone Wool stayed true to their roots, using springy Cormo wool from a pair of ranches located in Wyoming and Montana, and tinkering with the spin to make sure they're getting the most from this lovely fiber.

They worked with a mill to create a special method of fiber preparation, one that marries woolen and worsted processes. The result is a unique yarn with woolen-spun's airy loft and worsted's strength. Springy, lofty, and with a substantial hand, Stone wool Cormo offers crisp stitch definition and elegant texture in knitting.

The yarn blooms in the soak and can be knitted in a wide range of gauges for different fabrics. Recommended needles size US 6 - 7 for hard wearing knits, up to US 9 - 10 for knits with drape.

Because Stone Wool wool is not harshly scoured, a small amount of VM may be present.
