Hillesvåg Sølje

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, Sølje is a fingering weight yarn with a heritage feel for authentic stranded colorwork.  Hats, mittens, cowls & sweaters knit in the yarn get better & better with wash & wear.

Light & lofty, with a traditional hand, Sølje knits into garments & accessories that are incredibly warm & durable.  Naturally strong, Norwegian wool is known for pilling resistance & shape retention.  It is an ideal choice for heirloom pieces.

The palette of stunning heathered colorways provides inspiration for both modern & traditional knitting patterns.
