Dutch wool bulky
Lowlands collection
Shaped by weather
± 100 gr. / ± 135 m
A beautiful traditional Dutch yarn.
This yarn is a mix of wool from traditional Dutch Kempe heaahsheep, Merino and Alpaca. Traditional Dutch sheep produce a tough, rough wool and the alpaca ande merino makes it a bit softer. This way, this wool remains just below the itch point for most people. The sand, taupe and natural off white are the natural colors of the sheep and alpacas. The dark blue is GOTS certified washed and dyed, which means that it has been dyed with as few harmful dyes as possible. You can see the yarn on the website in a sweater in our style Dirko and Aggie. For the Dorus hat you need about 100 grams.
There is approximately 135 meters in a 100 gram ball of Dutch Wool. We advise you to always knit a test piece first and then wash it to check the number of rows and stitches.
Knitting Tension: Swatch 10 x 10 cm = 12-16 stitches and 17-22 rows after washing. Needle number 5.5-8
Washing instructions: 30 degrees wool wash, dry flat.

Origin
Where the wool begins.
Our wool originates from the Dutch landscape.
Wind, rain, and open land shape the fiber even before a thread is spun.
Fiber
The nature of the wool
After shearing, the wool is carefully selected.
The properties of the fiber ultimately determine the structure, warmth, and feel of the knit.
yarn
The basis of every knit.
The wool is spun into yarn.
This forms the basis for a knit that combines strength, softness, and resilience.
Knit
Designed from wool.
Only now does the wool get its shape. Not the other way around. The properties of the yarn determine how the knit feels, wears, and protects.
Wearing for years
Built to last.
A good knit gets better with every wear. Designed to become part of your wardrobe, season after season.
Construction
This is what gives this knit its character
Veen is knitted in our own knitting studio at the farm in Baambrugge on a machine for coarser yarns. The jacquard pattern is built directly into the knit with two colors. It has a resemblance to a Nordic sweater, but the color gradient and the reference to the Dutch landscape give it a unique character. The washing and further finishing also take place in the Netherlands.
Built to last
Not designed for one season, but to be a part of your wardrobe for years to come.
The more often you wear a knit, the more it molds to you.
Wool requires little. Often, airing it is enough to keep it fresh.
A good knit doesn't have to stay perfect. Small repairs actually extend its life.
Designed to last for years, not to be replaced after one season.
