okewa / possum merino silk

celebrating our Kiwi heritage, our okewa yarn is a uniquely Aotearoa blend of possum down, ZQ merino and mulberry silk. delivered into our hands from local farmers, carrying the values and principals we live by as custodians of the land. 

Te Reo for ‘rain cloud’, our okewa yarn creates endlessly warm knits that boast an airy lightness and supreme softness, made to be treasured through cozy winter days. 

this beautiful yarn celebrates our journey beyond sustainability, towards regenerative practices. endlessly soft and lovingly warm, each okewa knit has been crafted with great care.
