Approx: 8-12’’ wide and 48-60’’ total length
Please note that the production time for made-to-order knitwear items is currently several weeks, as our small team hand-combs qiviut directly from muskox hides, washes the fibre and picks out guard hairs, and then mills the qiviut with the utmost care to produce the finest yarn. Yarns are then dyed (unless ordered in a natural shade) and then knit up on one of our vintage machines.
- Note on 100% qiviut yarn: our most popular and precious yarn, the 100% qiviut is soft, warm, and very difficult to felt accidentally. Somewhat like alpaca, these fine fibres may relax over time, leading to small changes in the shape of the knitwear. For knitwear with greater 'memory,' try one of our other fibre blends!
QIVIUT QUALITY GUARANTEE: At Qiviut Inc, our qiviut fibre is 100% sourced from wild NWT muskoxen sustainably harvested for food in Inuit communities. We comb out our fibre by hand to preserve the full staple length, and we make all our products here in Canada!
