BC Garn Bio Balance is a fingering weight blend of wool and cotton, a combination that brings the best of both fibers to the yarn. The wool lends elasticity and loftiness to the cool, soft cotton, and the result is a nice balance of animal and plant fibers, and smooth, well-behaved fabric. BC Garn is a family-owned, ecologically-minded yarn company out of Denmark. Many of their yarns are certified by the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS), so we feel confident that they are produced safely and responsibly, from the fiber to the dye. The raw wool in Bio Balance comes from mulesing-free farms in South America. The cotton is grown in Turkey, where the yarn is spun, too.
