Lofoten Wool is a company that produces yarn from sheep raised within the Lofoten Islands and Northern Norway. They take pride in the exceptional quality of local wool and offer sustainably produced products to customers. The company sources wool from sheep grazing on wild mountainsides and remote ocean islets during the light summer months, resulting in high-quality wool production.

Wool from Lofoten is a superior raw material due to the fresh air, salt, seaweed, and nutrient-rich pastures that the sheep feed on. The wool is excellent due to the same reasons for which Lofoten is famous for its lamb meat. Wool is a versatile material that has many unique qualities that other textiles cannot match. It is self-cleaning, flame and bacteria-retardant, temperature regulating, and keeps you warm even when wet. Wool fibers are highly elastic and offer excellent shape retention with durability. Moreover, wool is a 100% renewable resource, making it an environmentally friendly option.
