Colonial Persian Yarn is produced by the original spinner of Paternayan Persian Yarn, using the same proprietary process. The yarn is spun from 100% long-staple virgin wool with extraordinary strength for no fraying or breaking during stitching. This versatile, mothproof 3-ply yarn is perfect for heirloom-quality needlepoint, crewel, cross-stitch and more.
