YARN – SAONA
By combining Andalusian cotton with our local flock’s native breeds, we craft an authentic yarn rich in history.
A soft, Fingering-weight quality that will add a special touch to all your projects, thanks to the beautiful colors that inspire imagination and creation.
‘Our trips to Saona,‘ as my father writes, are words brimming with significance and laden with family memories.
Saona is the name of the river where Grandfather Julián and his sons Teodoro and Ramón used to go with their mule-drawn cart filled with fleece wool. They spent days there washing the wool, preparing it for subsequent steps like drying, carding, spinning, and weaving blankets.
An homage to our preceding generations emerges in the form of a collection, featuring a yarn filled with nuances both in texture and tone.
The colors of this collection have been designed in collaboration with Hailey Smedley (@Ozetta). Her work, like our project, is rooted in family tradition, steeped in a love inherited from her grandmother, who taught her how to knit.
