Hillesvåg Sol

A longtime source of high quality, Norwegian yarns, Hillesvåg woolen factory is a family-owned spinning mill located in Hjelmås, Norway.  With a passion for beautiful & authentic heritage yarns, the mill has been in use since the late 1800’s.  Spun with Norwegian wool, Hillesvåg yarns are lightweight, yet extremely warm.

Spun with 100% Norwegian wool, Sol is a beautiful DK weight yarn with crisp stitch definition.  Wonderful for stranded colorwork, the yarn comes in an impressive array of colors for sweaters, hats, mittens, socks & cowls.

Light & lofty, with a heritage hand, Sol knits into garments that are incredibly warm, yet comfortable to wear.  Naturally strong, Norwegian wool is known for pilling resistance & shape retention.  It is an ideal choice for heirloom pieces.
