mYak Kupa Sarasvati

Kupa is an all season yarn with the rich depth of color of yak & the breathability of cotton.  Soft against skin with the perfect amount of drape, this fingering weight yarn is perfect for lightweight cardigans, pullovers & wraps.  The fine gauge & twist work very well for knitting cables, lace & textured stitches.

Ethically sourced mYak fibers are purchased directly from nomadic Tibetan herders.  100% traceable & naturally soft, the yarns are spun from the finest yak & sheep wool from the Tibetan Plateau.  The yarns are then spun in traditional mills located in the foothills of the Italian Alps where no decoloring or chemical processes are taking place.  mYak yarns respect the environment, fiber & source.
