Rustic Organic Wool Yarn for Weaving and Waldorf Handcraft

This thick, plant-dyed wool yarn from Filges is a Bioland-certified organic fiber set made for weaving, finger knitting, traditional handwork, and natural fiber crafts. Four wool plies are firmly twisted together to form a substantial strand, with natural variations in thickness that give finished projects a beautifully rustic character.

Made in Germany by Filges, the wool is colored with plant-based dyes, creating warm, nuanced shades with the subtle variation characteristic of naturally dyed fibers. The combination of a firm twist, substantial weight, and gently irregular texture makes this yarn especially satisfying for projects where the rustic structure of the yarn itself becomes part of the finished work.

Designed for Weaving & Creative Handwork

The thick, rustic construction makes this yarn especially well suited for:

tabletop, lap, and simple frame looms
beginner weaving projects
finger knitting and finger crochet
finger weaving and braiding
lucet cord-making
knitting towers and French knitting
small fiber-art projects such as dollhouse rugs and wall hangings
rustic doll hair and other natural-fiber crafts

Its substantial strand is easy to see and handle, making it particularly lovely for simple handwork techniques where the movement of the yarn and the developing pattern are part of the experience.

Because the yarn naturally varies somewhat in thickness, it is best suited to creative and traditional handwork rather than projects requiring a precise knitting gauge.

Naturally Dyed, Thoughtfully Paired

Each set contains four coordinated 25 g skeins chosen to work beautifully together in weaving and handwork projects.

The Character of Plant-Dyed Wool

Plant-dyed wool has a depth and gentle variation all its own. Colors may vary slightly from skein to skein or within an individual strand as a natural result of the dyeing process. Rather than appearing perfectly uniform, the yarn has a lively, organic quality that complements natural-fiber handwork beautifully.
