Origin 009 takes the same springy, resilient Corriedale fibre and spins it to Aran weight. Corriedale's natural crimp gives this yarn real bounce, which is precisely what you want under a cable - the stitch pushes forward and stays proud instead of flattening. Non-superwash throughout, so the fibre keeps its structure and its grip. It shares the collection's lowest price point with Origin 008.
Perfect for cabled jumpers, hats, mittens and blankets. Undyed it is a natural creamy white with good uptake for hand-dyeing, and at 18 stitches to 10cm a project moves along quickly.
