From beneath the shaggy mantle of the North American bison comes the beautiful winter undercoat of pure bison down; America's premium luxury fiber. Surprisingly soft, seriously strong.

Buffalo Gold #13: Lightweight, 25% pure bison down blended with 75% bamboo. Smooth and silky. A soft yarn with more drape and a cooler hand than other bison products, and oh, so grand for scarves, sweaters and shawls. This variegated Buffboo is available in one luscious colorway that reveals rich blues, purples, mauves and greens within every skein. Truly rich and elegant.
