About: Halcyon Geo Rug Wool
Geo's actually spun from two slivers or rovings as they come out of the carding machine. This "double rove"construction creates a strong 'singles' yarn without the need for excessive twist, just the right amount for weaving or knitting.
• dyed in the same colors as Deco but on a natural
heathered grey for softer, muted colors
• great for woven or knitted outerwear, softens after
washing
• strength without excessive twist
• mothproofed
