OUR YARN

For us it has always be an obvious condition to have our yarn produced as sustainably as possible, without the toxic chemicals that none of us should be exposed to. We both have children with sensitive skin who suffer from severe allergies and we have wanted a yarn that we can use for clothing and teddy bears. A yarn that won’t cause allergic reactions or itchy skin and at the same time holds the highest quality in all aspects.

When yarn is produced sustainably you will achieve the highest quality fibers. If the cotton plants grow naturally the fibers will be softer, longer and stronger. It was also always our goal that production leaves the smallest footprint possible on our earth.

The Fibers

We purchase certified organic wool and cotton and we produce and dye the yarn in a small spinning mill in Portugal. The production process is also certified to ensure sustainable production without the use of undesirable and harmful chemicals.
The raw cotton comes from South America, where it is possible to grow organic cotton due to the perfect combination of warm weather and fertile soil without having to add huge amounts of water. The cotton fields are placed near streams from the mountains and nearby rivers. Here it is sown, grown and harvested without the use of chemical pesticides and artificial fertilizer with a minimum of irrigation. The natural growth creates longer cotton fibers and results in an incredibly soft high-quality yarn.

Our merino wool also comes from South America. The wool is certified organic which means that the wool is produced with focus on animal welfare and of course mulesing-free.
The certificate also ensures safe and hygienic working conditions and fair wages for workers and farmers.

We only purchase certified mohair fibers to ensure all considerations are made towards animal welfare, environment and local communities. The mohair fibers come from Africa and are spun and dyed in Italy according to the same high standards as our organic cotton and wool.

Quality and Exchange Guarantee
You may expect a very high quality of yarn from us regardless of which of our yarns you are working with.

Knots in the yarn
Our yarn is dyed in smaller quantities according to organic standards. Statistically you may expect to find 1-2 knots per 1½ kg yarn.
If you find more than 1 knot in a ball of yarn, we offer a free replacement. Let us know on info@kreadeluxe.com, and we will send a new ball of yarn to you.
The same applies if you find small pills of surplus wool in the ball. If the pill doesn’t come off easily, we offer to send you a free replacement.

Pilling/bobbles
With our new version of Organic Wool 1 we have succeeded in producing a soft and organic wool WITHOUT adding unwanted chemicals like e.g. superwash and other chemicals.
Our new version has 80% lower risk of pilling and is well suited for crochet projects, baby and toddler knitwear and wonderful knitwear for yourself.

Exchange your yarn
If you have one or more balls of yarn left when finishing a project, you can always exchange it for other colors or other types of yarn, regardless of where or when you bought it. You can exchange your yarn in our showroom, in the web shop or when you meet us at trade fairs.
The yarn must still be in our assortment and our exchange policy does not apply to discontinued colors or types of yarn.
