Our iconic Le Petit Lambswool is spun and dyed in Scotland using traditional Scottish techniques. It is processed in a special way, key to what makes it so unique.
Le Petit Lambswool has the widest colour palette among our wools, currently featuring 72 shades. A palette of natural colours and hues that inspire us and allow for a variety of creations and beautiful jacquard choices.
COMPOSITION
100% Lambswool (First shearing, the finest qualities) Cross-breads (Merino excluded).
ORIGIN OF THE WOOL
Le Petit Lambswool is prepared with the special Scottish traditional savoir faire, by a family owned fiber mill in Scotland đ€
It is washed and steamed to remove all traces of spinning oil and to add an incredible lightness to the wool. Our partner puts the wool through carefully selected processes, and is finally transformed into small 50g yarn balls ready to be knit with, the labels added by hand as the finishing touch. We love the artisanal and handmade aspect, which can include small signs of imperfections, as these are part of the charm of natural wool and Biches & Bûches.
