Summarized by Shop
One of our core yarns in over 64 colors, Shetland has been a versatile workhorse for our customers for years. This yarn is not made from Shetland Wool. Shetland refers to the size of the yarn and not the fiber content. The wool is a blend of an Australian fine wool and a hearty New Zealand wool that gives the yarn it’s luster.

Exactly as described. One of my cones had a ton of knot ties though so I lost a big chuck for weaving becaude they were so close together which was a bit of a disappointment, but only one of the cones did this. Id overall order again :)
