Possum is a small marsupial native to New Zealand, where it is considered a pest. They are controlled so that the large population does not damage the ecosystem in New Zealand. Possum has a very fine undercoat, and these are what we use for the yarn. The fibers are hollow, which makes the yarn very warm. The fibers are short, like those in our mink yarn, and therefore you will not find 100% Possum; instead, it is spun together with other luxury fibers, which certainly does not make it any worse.
We work extensively with image editing for our products, and we do our best to achieve the most true-to-life image of the yarn. However, please be aware that colors may vary depending on the screen you are viewing the images on.
