Woolfolk Capsule

Woolfolk Capsule is a special, limited-edition DK-weight wool yarn created from exceptionally fine, naturally pigmented fleeces. Undyed and available in just five beautiful shades, Capsule celebrates the natural color, softness, and character of the wool itself.

Five years in the making, Capsule began with Woolfolk carefully gathering select fleeces from a flock of naturally colored sheep in the Ovis 21 cooperative. Only the finest wool was chosen, with a fiber diameter of just 19.5 microns for an exceptionally soft feel. The result is a yarn with subtle variations and depth of color that can only come from nature.

Capsule is a lovely choice for sweaters, cardigans, shawls, and accessories where the beauty of the wool can take center stage. Its understated palette is equally suited to simple stockinette, textured stitches, and timeless designs.

Capsule's DK weight and wonderfully soft feel make it an appealing choice for projects worn close to the skin. Consider a classic sweater or cardigan, a cozy cowl, a generous scarf, or a simple shawl that allows the yarn's natural character to shine.

The five shades also work beautifully together for subtle stripes, color blocking, or understated colorwork.
