Background
The main fleece comes from a small flock of Gotland sheep from my parent's organic farm on the southern part of Fyn in Denmark where the sheep live a happy and calm life.
Gotland sheep have beautiful dark fleece that can vary from light silvery tones to charcoal greys to browns. The yarn will bloom and develop a stunning halo with wear.
For this yarn I divided the wool into three natural shades that I had spun at the local family owned spinning mill Hjelholts Uldspinderi.
To be able to spin the rather slick short staples the mill adds a bit of Falkland Merino wool.
My yarn is compatible to their Dansk Pelsuld 5.5/2 yarn that comes in many different colours.

Your yarn is beautiful, and I love that you're so passionate about it being local and organic! Thank you for sharing the details!
What an important legacy your family is passing on to current and future generations. I feel like it is small operations like yours and your parents’ that are a force for change in our world.
Lovely story about your parents and you as a little girl. The yarn is beautiful.
Love your story with lambs and nature 🐑🐑🐑🌼
I don’t blame you for getting excited about that yarn. It looks absolutely gorgeous and I’m hoping to get some Friday. Thank you for offering it to us.
Laerke, your yarn and knitting is so beautiful! :-)
Laerke. What a beautiful story. Sheep are so special. I had a flock of 15 and all were pets. Thank you for talking about how important an organic life is for this planet.

Love it! Will be interested to buy for sure. Well done!

@@22marketst What? That's incredible. Lets meet can we?
This is truly wonderful. Thank you.
I made a collar with the yarn from your last update and I obviously wear it right to my skin. Its not scratchy at all; I adore it and kinda live in that collar ;-P
Lovely yarn. I made the November Jacket by PetiteKnit with a yarn that I think is similar. It think this yarn would be great for that pattern. It turned out great for me. That jacket is like a friend hugging me! A friend smelling like sheep, but that's OK :-).
I can't wait to receive this wool! Dreaming up some many projects to make with it.
Oh i just packed your order yesterday! 🤗 it will go out before the weekend. Csn’t wait to see what you make ✨
I want your yarn! It is so beautiful!
Looked on your Etsy shop tonight , No yarn for sale.
Hi! It sold out in 8 minutes! I hope the next update in a few weeks will be more calm 🤗
Hi Laerke, can you give any approximate cost of shipping 2 skeins to UK. Will I have to pay any custom duty?
Hello Laerke, how much will one skein cost?
Hi! It will be 140 dkk 🤗
