What is Sprout?

Sprout is our custom made fiber blend. (90/10 Washable US Merino Wool/Nylon) Made by the unrivaled quality of All-American manufacturing.

Custom Made

The wool is from American grown Merino Sheep flocks. Farmers/Ranchers who grow with care for their wool and health of their flock.

American Grown

The wool is combed before it's twisted. This eliminates small fibers that itch, plus it aids durability as it leaves only longer wool fibers.

Worsted... Spun?

To replace Silk, nylon was blended to wool in the 40's for added durability and shape retention. With only 10%, you won't know the it's there, but it's doing it's job.

Why Nylon?

Over-twisting makes the yarn stronger and splitting difficult. With a Balanced S-twist, it's great for knitting! (With a tight ply, crocheters need not worry about untwisting.)

Twist matters.

The wool is made machine washable for easier care. The process is called superwashing, it's washed In pool-like water and rinsed in Mead Paper finish. This keeps the fibers from felting.

It's ok to wash.
