Snefnug, which means “snowflake” in Danish, is a luxurious Aran-weight yarn from CaMaRose. It features a cotton mesh tube as the core infused with a decadent blend of merino and baby alpaca, creating a hard-wearing, irresistibly soft, light, and airy yarn.

Snefnug is a versatile yarn that can be used for various projects. It's perfect for baby and children’s knits and oversized adult knits such as sweaters, cardigans, scarves, and beanies. The possibilities are endless, especially when knit on a looser gauge with big needles, inspiring creativity and innovation.

Camarose Snefnug is proudly certified by the Responsible Alpaca Standard (RAS) and the Responsible Wool Standard (RWS). These certifications ensure that the alpaca and wool used in Snefnug are sourced from farms that meet strict animal welfare and land management standards. This means you can knit with Snefnug, knowing that the materials have been responsibly and ethically sourced from farm to finished product.
