So, get started on the knitting needles or crochet hook with your own wonderful Nordic Sky yarn today.

Yarn qualities named after Nordic cities

It is not only the beautiful colours that draw their inspiration from the Nordic countries. Each yarn quality is named after a Nordic city. Thus, it involves exciting name journeys to Norway, Finland, and Sweden, respectively.

The soft hand-coloured Nordic Sky Bergen is named after the Norwegian city of Bergen, while Nordic Sky Oulu Kid-Silk is named after the high-tech Finnish town of Oulu. Finally, Nordic Sky Sundsvall, which is intended for hand dyeing, is named after the Swedish industrial and market town of Sundsvall.

Get Nordic charm with high-quality yarn

Whichever yarn you prefer, the Nordic Sky brand offers high-quality products. The colourful Bergen yarn can be compared to luxury yarns such as the hand-dyed Manos del Uruguay Alegria and the luxury sock yarn Mayflower Luxus Sock Yarn. In addition, Bergen's hand dyeing process gives the yarn a unique play of colours. As a result, the shades can vary on the individual hank.

Superwash treated wool

On the other hand, Sundsvall is an uncoloured yarn, where you have ample opportunity to make your own mark on the Nordic spirit. Moreover, the yarn is for hand dyeing, whereby you can design it for your taste and project. In our guide to hand dyeing of yarn you will find sound advice for home hand dyeing of Sundsvall yarn.

At the same time, Sundsvall and Bergen consist of superwash-treated merino wool and superwash wool, respectively. The benefits of using yarn that has undergone the superwash method  are many. First, the treatment gives a smoother surface with less frayed fibers than ordinary wool yarn. In addition, superwash yarn can go in the washing machine at a higher temperature. Bergen and Sundsvall are therefore ideal for yarn projects intended for daily use and regular machine washing.

Mulberry silk

Nordic Sky Oulu Kid Silk is made of fine Mulberry Silk. It gives the yarn a lovely texture that exudes elegance and is the highest quality of silk available. The silkworms feed exclusively on the leaves of the mulberry tree, resulting in pure silk. Unlike wild silk, Mulberry silk thus has a uniform structure and colour, while the material is stronger. This makes Nordic Sky Oulu a lovely Kid-Silk yarn.

Pleasant yarn materials from Nordic Sky

All in all, with the yarn brand Nordic Sky you can expect yarn qualities filled with inspiring grace as well as excellent material mixtures:

• Nordic Sky Bergen Hand-dyed: 75% Superwash wool & 25% nylon
• Nordic Sky Oulu Kid-Silk: 72% Superkid Mohair & 28% Mulberry Silk
• Nordic Sky Sundsvall: 100% Superwash Merino wool

In addition, both Bergen and Sundsvall are OEKO-TEX certified. This means that the yarns do not contain chemicals that are harmful to health. If you demand your yarn's production conditions, content, and sustainability, you should check out OEKO-TEX. The exquisite yarn texture combined with the certification makes the two yarn qualities suitable for adult and children's clothing. Of these, Oulu Kid-Silk is perfect for needlework, where you want a delicate structure, as the yarn results in a fine and thin knit.

Bergen and Sundsvall can withstand machine washing at 30°C, but you should still wash your yarn projects on a wool or gentle program. On the other hand, Oulu should be hand washed at a maximum of 30°C.
