Wild Earth Natural 8ply
100% Pure Undyed NZ Haunui Wool – 8ply
Natural, honest, and quietly luxurious.
This 100% undyed New Zealand Halfbred wool (merino cross) is grown in South Canterbury and spun without compromise — straight from the sheep’s back with no dyeing, no chemical treatments, and no blended fibres. The soft, natural colour comes entirely from the wool itself, celebrating the beauty of New Zealand fibre in its purest form.
Yarn Characteristics
This 8-ply yarn is beautifully soft and smooth, with a rounded structure that delivers excellent stitch definition. It knits up evenly and reliably, making it a joy to work with — whether you’re creating everyday garments or quick, satisfying projects.
Warm without being heavy and gentle enough for sensitive skin, this yarn is ideal for baby knits and cosy accessories.
