Saona is a fantastic yarn option for all seasons due to its lightweight feel. It is a blend of 50% Spanish Merino and Manchega wool and 50% Andalusian cotton, all grown, spun, and dyed in Spain by Wooldreamers. The yarn is dyed before it's spun, which results in a lovely heathered appearance.

Growing and sustainably sourcing cotton can be challenging due to its high water requirements. However, Wool Dreamers were able to locally source and produce a blend from a fourth-generation, family-owned mill that is GOTS-certified.

• Merino Entrefino and Manchego Wool. Revaluing wool from native sheep.
