Cottage Worsted is spun from 100% Peruvian Highland wool, giving it the warmth, bounce, and woolly character that make natural wool such a pleasure to work with.
Its worsted weight makes it a wonderfully versatile choice for cozy sweaters, hats, mittens, scarves, blankets, and other cold-weather projects. It's also especially well suited to colorwork—the natural wool fibers help neighboring stitches settle beautifully together while giving your finished fabric warmth and structure.
Hand-dyed in Seattle, Cottage Worsted combines rich color with the timeless character of real wool.

Visiting Seattle from Cape Cod, I wandered past the Pioneer Square shop last December and was delighted with the yarn, seeing the dye baths and the knowledgeable and friendly staff. Purchased beautiful yarn that became part of my stash. With this addition it has a purpose as an Andrea Mowry vest.

I am sure it is great quality like all of your yarn but I have not gotten a chance to work with it yet.
