There is something quietly special about a yarn that comes from close to home — Naturally Big Natural 8 Ply is exactly that. Spun from 100% New Zealand wool by Naturally, one of New Zealand's most trusted yarn brands, this is a generous, honest, and beautifully versatile 8 ply yarn that celebrates the quality of New Zealand fleece in its most natural form. In four undyed, naturally occurring shades — Natural White, Light Grey, Charcoal, and Mid Brown — it's a yarn that lets the fibre speak for itself.
What makes this yarn particularly special is its natural, undyed character. The four shades — Natural White, Light Grey, Charcoal, and Mid Brown — are the colours of the fleece itself, produced by different breeds and natural variation in the wool rather than by dyeing. This means the yarn retains all of the natural oils and properties of the raw fleece, and has a warmth and depth of colour that dyed yarns often struggle to replicate. It's a palette that is quietly sophisticated and endlessly versatile — the kind of colours that work beautifully together in stripes, colourwork, and natural-toned projects, and that never go out of style.
The generous 150g ball with approximately 288m is one of the most practical and appealing things about this yarn. At 8 ply on 3.25–4mm needles, you get excellent yardage per ball — enough for a substantial portion of a sweater, a full blanket panel, or multiple accessories from a single ball. The tension of 22 sts = 10cm puts it squarely in the standard 8 ply range, making it compatible with a huge range of existing patterns. It's a yarn that rewards both careful pattern work and relaxed, intuitive knitting.
