NAVAJO-CHURRO Peat is made from 100% Navajo-Churro wool and is dark espresso in color with a smattering of white hair throughout. Navajo-Churro sheep are a dual-coated breed with a long, hairy outer coat and shorter, downy under coat. Peat blends both coats together into a single-ply yarn. We refer to this style of yarn as “lopi style” because the same coat-blending technique is used to make Icelandic lopi yarn from dual-coated Icelandic sheep. This lot has a relatively light twist in comparison to our other Navajo-Churro yarns. This enhances its lopi character and makes it a great option for Nordic-inspired knits.
