Lang Yak is an exotic blend of yak wool and extra fine Australian merino, spun in heavy worsted weight. The extremely fine yak's belly hair is combed out by hand and then spun into yarn. The yarn has a mottled texture, is machine washable in cold water, and is suitable for any kinds of autumn-winter items, from fashionable sweaters to gloves and caps. It is great with denim. Note that the yak hair is very soft, warming, and is moisture regulating.
