We are so excited to introduce you to Brushtail, the newest member in the Yarnfloozy family!
Why do I love it so much? Aside from the sustainability and obvious benefits of possum yarn it creates a fabric that is beautifully light, yet still toasty warm! Also due to the upcycled nature it is very resistant to pilling and simply gets softer the more you wear it. This means it creates garments that you can live in and wear day in and day out.
What does Upcycled mean you might ask? This yarn is created from garment and yarn off-cuts, shredded, then carded and blended with virgin possum fur and merino wool before being spun into beautifully soft yarn.
This is sustainability at its best!
