Opal Yarns Schafpate 4 Ply

Currently on the 12th Edition of shades, named 'Wanderlust'!

With the purchase of the Opal Schafpate collection, you support German migrant sheep farming and promote the maintenance of the landscape of the unique Swabian Alb. The program also involves people personally sponsoring sheep in return for a yearly gift and an invitation to visit the herd in person. You can find photos from the farm on Opal's website here.
