40% Possum fur*, 50% Merino Wool, 10% Silk

*This is an eco-friendly fur yarn, endorsed by both Greenpeace and the World Wildlife Fund. The possums were introduced to New Zealand in the 1800s, and the New Zealand ecosystem has no natural defense against them. As a result, the possums are devastating the endangered native flora and fauna of New Zealand, especially the native birds that are predominantly flightless or ground-nesting. Yarns like this one are part of an effort to develop a fur industry that can help save the New Zealand native environment.
