Oceana
As nice to touch as it is for the environment, Oceana is a fluffy dream! With a blend of soft, superfine alpaca and polyester SEAQUAL ® YARN made from Upcycled Marine Plastic, this yarn feels decadent and will warm both your body and heart. Oceana features a chainette construction with the alpaca loosely incorporated to trap more air and make a warm, light, fluffy yarn. The polyester and alpaca are dyed contrasting colors before plying, which helps emphasize the alpaca halo and adds dimension to knits. With its bright colors, Oceana is ideal for warm accessories and sweaters that make a big statement!
This yarn was created with SEAQUAL INITIATIVE. SEAQUAL INITIATIVE works with NGOs, fishermen, authorities, and local communities to help clean our oceans. Marine litter from our beaches, ocean floor & surface, rivers & estuaries, is collected by clean-up programs. It is then sorted into different material types and the plastic portion is cleaned and transformed into Upcycled Marine Plastic. Environmentally conscious brands and manufacturers then transform this new, fully-traceable raw material into inspiring sustainable products for every aspect of our lives. Consumer purchasing power is one of the most powerful tools for change. In choosing products containing Upcycled Marine Plastic, you are helping to clean our oceans.
