We have a long-time love affair with Woolfolk here at fibre space. Woolfolk’s Ovis 21 Merino is simply a delight to work with. Their innovative efforts to produce the very best wool fiber while stewarding the Patagonian Grasslands keep them very close to our hearts. Luft, which combines this exquisite merino with a pima cotton casing, creates a beautiful and light fabric with the perfect amount of drape. This Spring’s new colors infuse the Luft palette with new hues of blues and greens, inviting us to see familiar shades through fresh eyes.
