Kremke Soul Wool
Reborn Wool Recycled is a 100% post-consumer waste product made from wool garments that were hand-sorted into their respective colour families, shredded, and milled back into yarn.
Given most wool garments available in the mass market are blended with acrylic fibres, the resulting yarn has a 65% wool component, a 25% mix of acrylic fibres and 10% rPET (recycled polyester) that’s added to aid the spinning process.
With a soft woolly hand-feel and gently heathered palette Reborn Wool Recycled is a feelgood yarn both in hand and heart.
