Tag says WORSTED but it looks more like DK to me.
Note that most yak yarns bloom to some degree.
Why it feels extra special
Yak fiber sits in a sweet spot:
• Softer than most wool
• Warmer than merino
• Lighter by volume
• Less lanolin → better for sensitive skin
This is why yarns like Tibetan Cloud feel almost unreal — airy, warm, and dry even when wet.
Yak wool isn’t just “luxury marketing” rare — it’s structurally rare:
• Few animals
• Low yield
• Labor-intensive
• Remote sourcing
That’s also why it’s usually:
• Undyed
• Sold in smaller lots
• More expensive per gram than merino or alpaca
