Peruvian - Filcolana

Peruvian by Filcolana is a classic 4-ply yarn made of 100% wool. The wool used comes from the Peruvian highland sheep, a crossbreed between Corriedale and merino. The sheep graze on the Peruvian highlands, which contributes to the wool being extra fluffy and a matte appearance.

Peruvian is worsted spun, which makes the strand round and very even. It has a beautiful stitch definition and makes Peruvian extremely suitable for cables, texture patterns and stranded knitting.

Peruvian is suitable for all kinds of knitting or crochet projects, for both children and adults. You can even use the base to felt it afterwards. The wide assortment of colors only helps to give creativity free rein. Try Peruvian with our other yarn qualities as well. The combination of Peruvian and Tilia has become a classic over time.

Mulesing is not practiced on Peruvian highland sheep.
