Natural Finnsheep undyed wool scarf.

66 % Wool – 33 % organic cotton (GOTS Certified)

We have been working for years with shepherds and wool spinners to bring our own finnsheep breed’s wool into production. We process wool in small quantities to develop the best quality yarns for our wovens. In Finland sheeps can live a good life in small herds, enjoying the best care. The wool is processed into worsted special yarns by a small finnish spinnery, Pirtin kehräämö.

The GOTS standard ensures environmentally and socially sustainable manufacturing of cotton all the way from the fields to yarns. We buy our organic cotton from a German spinnery, specializing in fine cotton yarns. We prefer undyed, raw white cotton to minimise the use of chemicals in cotton processing. The raw white cotton is the softest one there is!

Made in Espoo, Finland. Find out more about the maker here.

Description

The Kaarna scarf is made with undyed wool and cotton yarns in Espoo, Finland.

We combine the pureness of the Nordic nature with nature’s own fibres to create wovens that not only feel good but have a positive effect on wellbeing. Driven by our love of natural wool and the passion for designing functional woven textiles we have created completely new combinations of natural materials, Kultavilla woollens. Our textiles exhibit the nature’s organic structures and soft colours. These are the functional woollens either for cold winter or for milder seasons. The choice is yours! We create scarves, throws, blankets and other accessories out of wool.

We use only natural fibres, organic cotton and several types of natural wool. Our speciality is using finnsheep wool, as it is local, ecological, and ensures that our woollens are fluffy and warm! WOOL, such fine material that no technology can copy its features. It’s warm, soft and holds all the features of cuddliness imaginable. To make a long story short, with all its fine qualities, wool is the wonder fiber!

The rich colour tones of our wool yarns are created with ecological natural dyes, utilizing as well the natural grey and brown shades of finnsheep wool, such as in the Kaarna scarf. All our dyes are produced in ethical and sustainable manner.

Care Instructions

Taking care of wool is usually perceived difficult, but we highly disagree. Wool’s natural wax, lanolin, is coating wool fibre, preventing woollens becoming dirty. Usually keeping your woollens in fresh air for a while, will be enough. If you think that your woollens need a wash: ‘Hand wash, rinse, spin and let it dry’ is the key.

  • Hand wash at 30°
  • Soak (10-15 minutes), spin, rinse and let it dry.
  • Use mild detergent or soap if needed.
