Heron - Fine Norwegian Wool

Made from 100% fine Norwegian wool from the sheep’s very first shearing.

The fibers are short, giving us a finer and softer yarn. The outcome is thin, light and soft garments, while maintaining the brilliance, crimp and longevity for which Norwegian wool is world renowned.

Norwegian wool is one of the world’s most animal-friendly textile fibers, due to the sheep’s natural mountain life. Our Norwegian wool comes from sheep known for roaming freely in the vast Norwegian hillsides while grazing in natural pastures.

To make it machine washable the Heron yarn undergoes a revolutionary new wool treatment using natural non-toxic salts. Machine wash using wool-cycle. (Fiber diameter: 30.5 micron)

Vegvisir is adorned with runes, symbols and braids from the Viking Era. In the center of the back is the Vegvisir (wayfinder) symbol. This is an old Norse symbol. The carrier of this symbol is said to never lose his or hers way. Next to the Vegvisir symbol is the symbol for luck from the ancient runic alphabet. Odin’s Illusionary Rune was said to give its bearer the ability to become a shapeshifter or even invisible. In battle this symbol would give you the power and courage of a bear. The braided pattern is inspired by the decorative braids often used in drawings from the Viking Era.
