Berenice by De Rerum Natura

Super kid ethical mohair and organic Arles merino ruffled around a silk thread

Available online and at La Maison Tricotée Gilford

Bérénice is a very fine lace-type yarn, fluffy and airy. The combination of mohair and Arles merino gives it a soft and cloudy feel, slightly less hairy than a classic mohair and silk yarn, and a very great softness.

Berenice is a unique blend of extra fine fibers from angora goats from South African farms involved in the respect for animal welfare and soft, fluffy wool from organic Arles merino , spun in loops around a shiny and strong silk thread , then combed to give the desired ruffled and voluminous appearance.

The yarn is then dyed with eco-friendly dyes that comply with GOTS specifications to reduce their environmental impact. The manufacturing of this very special yarn is carried out for us in Italy near Biella.
