Our light yarn blend consisting of virgin wool, silk and ramie is a very special and fine yarn. Because of the ramie part it is tougher than other yarns. So it’s also suited for knitting socks, if you don’t like the polyamid in common sock yarn.

Ramie is a natural fibre made out of a plant that is related to nettle but appears only in Southeast Asia. It’s one of the oldest fibre plants used by mankind and it lends a particularly shine to the fibre.


Unser leichtes Mischgarn aus Schurwolle, Seide und Ramie ist ein sehr besonderes, leichtes Edelgarn, das durch den Ramie-Anteil auch widerstandsfähig ist. Deswegen kann man es nicht nur sehr gut für Sommerprojekte einsetzen, sondern auch z.B. Socken daraus stricken.

Ramie ist eine natürliche Faser aus einer, mit der Brennessel verwandten, südostasiatischen Pflanze. Sie ist eine der ältesten Faserpflanzen der Welt und verleiht dem Garn einen besonderen Glanz.
