The Zealana range is made in New Zealand by Woolyarns in the lower North Island. They specialise in high quality fibres and particularly in Fine New Zealand Merino and Possum fibre blends. The New Zealand Possum is an ecological disaster, destroying masses of native bush and endangering bird life. These yarns make use of a fibre that would otherwise be wasted. Possum is incredibly light and warm, and being a fine fibre it is non-scratchy.

Most Zealana yarns are destined for export so I am very pleased to have it to offer, as a stand alone product and for use as beautiful complementary solids for the striking Noro range. Kauri 4ply blends well with the Noro Silk Garden Sock and Taiyo Sock yarns.
