We love the Spinni from Isager, a pure new wool in hanks of 100g, spun and dyed in Denmark. It is perfect for all kinds of manual crafts, a.o. for handknitting sweaters, shawls, scarfs for children and adults.

It has this lovely rustic feeling to it and only gets better with age..

Isager Spinni is easy to work with and is often worked, held together with another yarn. Because of the way it is spun, it is not suited for working in the round held alone.

SPINNI is a single ply wool.

In the olden days in Iceland this yarn was hand spun and preferably so fine that a finished shawl could be pulled through a finger ring.

Spinni is not quite as fine and we use the yarn in many different ways. When used on its own it is very suitable for lace shawls and one of its qualities is that it keeps its shape, so a scarf or shawl will not ‘collapse’.

As Spinni is a single yarn spun in a single direction, it is not really suitable for knitting stocking stitch in the round. The knitted fabric will have a tendency to skew. If working in the round in a textured pattern this will not normally be a problem.

In a multicoloured work Spinni will often be used as one of the yarns and with its beautiful and characteristic structure it is a lovely element in the knitted fabric.
