Beetroot Indigenous Yarn
Soft Sand: Premium Desi Oon & Indigenous Natural Dye Wool Yarns
Build your next heirloom garment on the gentle, soothing foundation of mountain botanicals. If you are looking to buy authentic, indigenous wool yarns that honor the quiet beauty of the earth, this delicate botanical extraction is crafted exactly for you. Ethically sourced from the sweeping, high-altitude pastures of the Himalayan region, this 4-ply desi oon is spun for designers who demand uncompromising quality and subtle, natural elegance. To achieve this beautifully muted, creamy beige, we utilize a 100% extraction of Beetroot—a plant based dye process that leaves a whisper-soft, sandy hue on the natural fiber.
WHY BUY THESE WOOL YARNS? Authentic natural dye wool yarns cannot be rushed or mass-produced in a commercial factory. Our Soft Sand colorway is strictly limited by seasonal botanical foraging and the natural yield of indigenous sheep. When you invest in this yarn, you are securing a highly rare, artisan-crafted fiber that directly supports local shepherd communities. Secure your sweater quantity today before this limited botanical batch is permanently allocated.
