Drops ALASKA (100% wool) - Classic wool, time tested

Looking for a yarn that is as reliable as your favourite winter jumper? Drops ALASKA has been in production for decades and remains one of the most popular choices for its quality and versatility. This 100% wool is for those who appreciate natural fibres and a traditional knitting feel.

Why choose DROPS Alaska?

  • Untreated wool: This wool is not treated with any chemicals before dyeing. This means that it retains all the best qualities of sheep's wool: excellent thermoregulation, dimensional stability and natural resistance to moisture.
  • Triple twist: The yarn is twisted from three strands, making it extremely strong and wear-resistant. This is one of those yarns that will last for decades in a knitted sweater.
  • Bold patterns: thanks to its thickness and construction, Alaska is ideal for highlighting weaves, columns and relief patterns. The knitting process is fast and the result looks solid.
  • Perfect for washing: because the wool is not treated with Superwash, this yarn is ideal for machine washing. You can create portable slippers, sturdy bags or warm gloves.

Creative ideas

It's the best choice for men's sweaters, thick outdoor cardigans, warm hats and gloves. If you want a sweater that is ”real”, heavy and very warm, choose Drops ALASKA.

Tip

As Alaska is a 100% virgin wool, it can be a little ”diggy” for people with more sensitive skin.

For some, this can be an advantage: it is a yarn that improves blood circulation and provides true dry warmth, making it indispensable for fishermen, hunters or lovers of long walks in nature.
