No Waste Wool | Knitting for Olive

Our No Waste Wool is a sustainable yarn, blending together 50% recycled wool with 50% of our extrafine, traceable, non-mulesed Merino. The 50% merino wool is Responsible Wool Standard certified and the recycled wool is a waste product from the production of other wool yarn. We collect the excess wool fibers, blend it with our merino wool and spin the wool blend into a new yarn. This way we use the wool fibers that would otherwise be wasted, and reduce waste in yarn productions. The 50% merino wool prevents the yarn from breaking easily, which is often the case with pure recycled yarn.
