Ulysse is a woollen spun yarn, which means that the yarn isn’t smoothed or combed when spun as per worsted yarns, but stretched out instead, trapping lots of air in the process. As a result, it is a voluminous yarn with a lovely bounce and elasticity to it – a winning combination for warm, yet lightweight knitted garments and accessories. As it has such a rounded structure, this sport weight yarn is a lovely choice for fair isle and colourwork, but also works well for showing off textured stitches such as cables in a knitted jumper, or delicate lace work in a shawl.
De Rerum Natura hold transparency and sustainability at the heart of their business and as such, Ulysse is a testament to the care and respect given to the animals and their wool, with a constant focus on traceability and an awareness of reducing its impact on the environment throughout the whole production process.
Crafted with the finest materials and ethical production, Ulysse offers the ultimate combination of quality and sustainability. The wool used in production is also mulesing free so you know that when you pick Ulysse for your next knitting project, you are joining us in supporting a more sustainable, and kinder future, one stitch at a time.
