Royal Blend: Qiviut and Silk Yarn

You deserve to treat yourself to a special accessory to enjoy for years. A cloud-like softness unlike any other yarn in your yarn stash. 

Qiviut comes from the fine undercoat of the Muskox. A natural fiber that is one of the warmest and most luxurious fibers in the world.

Blend of 50% qiviut – 50% mulberry silk.


Unique characteristics of Qiviut include: 

  • 8 times warmer than wool
  • Finer than Cashmere: Some even say it makes cashmere feel rough in comparison
  • Hypoallergenic
  • Hollow Fibers: That's why it's sooo light!
  • Lacks Lanolin/ Scales: This means no itchy, scratchy irritation on your skin when you wear it
  • Water repellent
  • 11-14 microns

  • Qiviut is not just wonderful to wear, it is a dream to work with during the entire knitting process. 
    “If you love to knit, this is one of the most special investments you can make in yarn or a project. Very much worth the splurge!”

    I LOVE this yarn!

    I really LOVE this yarn. It is pure luxury.
    I am making a cowl for my sister in law. She was a teacher in a small remote Alaskan village where the musk ox roamed freely. That was years ago.
    I don't know how often she will wear it since she lives in Las Vegasnow.
    But, if she stares at it lovingly once in a while....that will make me happy :-)

    I am only a few rows in on a scrumptious scarf/shawl pattern, but this yarn knits like a dream and feels so sumptuous. Just delicious and I love working on it. This was a treat for myself and it surpasses my hopes - highly recommend and love!

    Muskox shed their under-wool fiber naturally each spring, which is then hand-collected from either the tundra, bushes, or branches. We work with locals in Northern communities to gather the fiber.

    We get this precious Muskox resource with a clear commitment to social and environmental responsibility.

    Also, it is important to mention that we purchase the yarns directly from the source, like Vicuna from Peru, Guanaco from Argentina, Qiviut from the Arctic
