Merino d'Arles sheep have been kept in Southern France since 1806 and are guided to the lush meadows of the Alps in summer, keeping alive an ancient tradition. Rosy Green Wool uses this 100% organic yarn to create a plump, fingering weight yarn. Merino d'Arles comes in 50g hanks with 218 yds. The yarn has a "crunchier" feel than Cheeky Merino Joy while maintaining a super-soft feel. Merino d'Arles is not superwash. Like all Rosy Green Wool products, Merino D'Arles is GOTS certified.
