Peace Fleece works to support pastoral communities that have been historically in conflict with the US. Currently Peace Fleece is working with the Navajo to offer fair market prices for the Rambouillet sheep wool raised by families in the Navajo Nation. Peace Fleece's yarn is made of this wool blended with a domestic fine wool and mohair for strength.
We are excited to welcome Peace Fleece yarn back to The Woolly Thistle. This 2ply Aran weight yarn was a fast hit among Thistlers and then, due to production difficulties, we were unable to stock it for quite some time. But, it is back and just as beautiful as ever!
