Nordic lets the wool do the talking.
A blend of 50% Merino and 50% Corriedale creates a fluffy, wooly blended combed top. It's soft enough for next to skin uses, but the addition of Corriedale adds bounce and sturdiness to the softer Merino fibres. By using Corriedale wool the blend has a bit more tooth to it. This fibre has a more open crimp so you can spin a loftier yarn with more life to it than a pure merino blend. This is a fibre that's made for colour work, stripes, warm bouncey accessories and cozy garments.
Nordic is inspired by the lands across the North Sea and the ancient mythology of the Norse Gods and Goddesses.
Idun
The rejuvenating one, goddess of the Earth with a basket of apples offering eternal youth.
A fresh shade of green but with slight hints of reddy-pink to represent the apples, and add an earthy balance.

NB. Every batch of the fibre will differ ever so slightly in how it comes out of the blending machinery. It is the same fibre composition, and will spin in to yarn with the same appearance, but braids might look slightly different. I recommend buying enough fibre at the same time to complete your project to ensure you don't get any differences in "dye lots" If you need more fibre than is listed at present please get in touch.
