Made with 100% natural fibres, Pascuali's Pinta was originally intended to be a sock yarn, but soon it proved to be much more than that: it is truly an allrounder wonderful yarn that can be used to knit many different kinds of garments and accessories.  

What distinguishes Pinta from other yarns is its very unique composition: 60% merino, 20% silk and 20% ramie. The mulberry silk gives it a glossy shine and smoothness. It gets its robustness from its other very special ingredient: ramie, an eco-friendly fibre, highly sustainable and a very good alternative to synthetic fibres, is a plant fibre of the nettle family noted for its length and toughness.   

Pinta also supports the concept of sustainability and is naturally 100% ecological! It is highly durable and completely biodegradable which helps to prevent unnecessary waste. The fact that it does not have to be washed so frequently thanks to its natural self-cleaning properties also has a positive impact on the environment.

Certifications

• Responsible Wool Standard (RWS) -- a global benchmark focused on the well-being of sheep and the sustainable management of pastures. It ensures the traceability of wool from certified farms, promoting ethical practices in wool production.
• Mulesing-Free

Note: Since Pascuali primarily supports small farmers and farms, not all their yarns are certified. As a rule, the farms cannot afford to obtain certifications such as GOTS. Instead, Pascuali reps travel to the respective regions to see the conditions for themselves -- their requirements are often higher than those of most textile certificates.
Additionally, Pascuali yarns are spun according to high standards either directly in the countries where the fibres are sourced or also in Italy and Portugal.
