Zealana Rimu Fingering Yarn

Zealana Rimu Fingering yarn is very warm, incredibly soft, and knits up beautifully. Dare we say “sumptuous?” Yes, we dare! It’s also a bit fuzzy, in the best possible way. It’s part of Zealana’s Performa Series, which is designed to be a harder-wearing, yet still luxurious, yarn. Zealana Rimu blends fine New Zealand merino and brushtail possum for durability, light weight and serious warmth.

This yarn is great for sweaters, vests, hats, mittens and anything else that is meant to be warm, cuddly and snuggly when it’s cold outside.

If you want a heavier weight version, try Zealana Rimu DK yarn. If you like the idea but wish there was a little silk in it, try Zealana’s Kauri Fingering Yarn.

About Zealana

Woolyarns, the owner of Zealana, was the first company to spin possum yarns. They created the Zealana brand in order to showcase their ultra soft, light, warm and durable luxury hand knitting yarns. Their Performa series of yarns features machine washable possum blends.

Settlers brought the non-native possum to New Zealand in the 19th century for the purpose of building a fur industry. Then the possums devastated New Zealand’s bird population. When you buy Zealana yarns, you are helping manage the possum population in New Zealand, and helping prevent possum predation on New Zealand native birds. You’re also getting yarn made with a fibre that is breathable, warmer than either merino or cashmere, and luxuriously soft.
