Arapawa

Arapawa sheep are Merino-related and native to a small island off the coast of New Zealand. This primitive breed comes in rich shades of brown, black, gray and white. The blended color variations make a warm, brown, tweedy yarn. Arapawa wool is unusually soft, with a dry--and almost weightless--lofty hand. Spun in Massachusetts, USA.
