Plum is a tightly spun and soft mohair yarn that makes incredibly comfortable and lightweight garments. A wonderful yarn knit by itself or when held together with another yarn. Hold it with Rauma Finullgarn for a lovely sweater or garment! We've put together just a few ideas but the possibilities of beautiful pairings are endless.
Rauma yarn has been spun since 1927 in Norway. The town of Veblungsnes in Møre og Romsdalis is located in fjord country on the Rauma River on the west coast of Norway.
The company started with 3 employees and continued to develop over the years. The textile factory was completely destroyed by bombing during WWII at which time a new factory was immediately erected. The factory and company was completely overhauled in the 1970's.
Rauma Plum is a delightful mohair to knit with. It's soft, and gives a lovely halo. For my latest sweater, I chose a shade darker than my MC to give a slight marled look. I love the effect.

Adding a strand of Rauma Plum is producing a beautiful marbled look to the blue contrast colorwork, as well as a lovely halo.
