Aran Knitting Yarn & Worsted Weight Wool
Explore our handpicked range of Aran knitting wool. Traditionally used for knitting jumpers in the UK, Aran wool is also perfect for accessories and home items. Our collection includes only the highest quality yarns that we love to use ourselves, offering superior natural fibres like Merino, linen, cashmere and cotton ideal for any special knitting project.
We specialise in natural fibres and sustainable yarns sourced from small, independent companies like The Fibre Co. and De Rerum Natura. This commitment ensures that our products are not only environmentally friendly but also support other small independent companies. Our yarns are perfect for eco-conscious knitters who value quality and sustainability.
Alongside our Aran wool, we offer a selection of worsted weight yarn. Worsted yarn typically knits up with 18-22 stitches per 10cm on 4-5mm needles, while Aran wool produces 16-20 stitches per 10cm on 4.5-5.5mm needles. It's important to note that worsted weight yarn is an American term for 10ply wool, and can be substituted with Aran weight yarn. Remember to check your tension and knit a swatch before diving in to ensure your project turns out just right.
Our shop specialises in natural fibre yarns, ensuring every purchase supports your creativity with the best materials available. Whether knitting a cosy jumper or crafting unique accessories, our Aran and worsted-weight yarns will meet your needs while promoting sustainability and ethical sourcing.
