<\/a><\/p>\nIf you want fast progress and a striking result, DROPS Snow, formerly known as Eskimo, is a classic choice. This chunky single-ply yarn is made from 100% wool.<\/p>\n
Why choose DROPS Snow?<\/h3>\n\n- Natural warmth: the wool fibre is only washed and is not chemically treated before dyeing. This helps preserve its natural properties and gives the fabric characteristic shape and texture.<\/li>\n
- Fast results: the chunky weight makes it possible to knit a stylish hat or thick scarf in a single evening.<\/li>\n
- Excellent for felting: a popular choice for machine-felted slippers, bags and decorative home accessories.<\/li>\n
- Broad colour palette: choose solid, mixed or printed shades to add depth and character to your project.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Caring for DROPS Snow garments<\/h3>\n
DROPS Snow is 100% natural wool without a Superwash treatment, so it needs careful handling. With suitable care, finished pieces can remain soft and warm for years.<\/p>\n
\n- Hand washing: wash garments by hand at no more than 30 \u00b0C. Avoid sudden temperature changes; the rinse water should be the same temperature as the wash water.<\/li>\n
- Suitable detergents: use a wool detergent without bleach or enzymes. Do not use fabric softener. Suitable options include Eucalan detergents<\/a> <\/strong>or Knools detergent.<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n
- Handle gently: do not rub or wring the garment. Let the water drain naturally or press it gently in a dry towel.<\/li>\n
- Drying: do not tumble dry. Reshape the garment and dry it flat on a clean, dry towel, away from radiators and direct sunlight.<\/li>\n
- Felting<\/strong><\/a>: when you intentionally want to felt a project such as slippers, machine wash it at 40 \u00b0C on a regular cycle.<\/li>\n
- Important: natural wool often benefits from airing between wears, which can reduce the need for washing.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
