100% New Zealand Wool 3Ply - Tufting Yarn
Made from 100% New Zealand wool, our New Zealand Wool 3Ply is a rug yarn with a coarse handle and a naturally woolly finish. Supplied on 500 g cones, it’s aimed at tufted rugs, wall hangings and larger textile pieces where the material’s texture is part of the design.
Unlike softer garment yarns, New Zealand Wool 3-Ply makes no particular effort to be cuddly. Its appeal lies in its substantial feel and rustic character, bringing another dimension to both simple shapes and intricate tufted surfaces. A material for makers who like their wool to feel unmistakably woolly.
Also available as New Zealand Wool 3-Ply - Weaving & Crochet Yarn, supplied in 100 g balls for smaller projects and mixing colours.
