Majestic Blend: Merino, 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 80% merino – 15% qiviut – 5% 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!”

    Majestic Blend: Merino, Qiviut and Silk Yarn

    This yarn is beautiful, light, and soft. It is also strong and shows the stitches clearly. One skein was just enough to make two 4 inch wide tunisian crochet ear warmers.

    Soft and warm

    I love the yarn - made a hat for my Canadian nephew, and when my daughter saw it she asked for one for her birthday. So soft and warm!!

    Lovely yarn and quick service!

    I had purchased some musk ox yarn in Anchorage last summer. It is beautiful but the natural color is not a good color on me. I was so excited to find the lovely colors that Wind Valley has. My Majestic Blend is a perfect compliment to add some needed color to the hat that I’m starting! It works up beautifully and I love the deep rich color!

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Once you finish knitting your project, please block it.

    For next washes please use a mild soap and do not wring. Roll up with a towel and gently squeeze out all the water. Scrunch the garment into a small mound and shape as it dries.

    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
