Handspun Hope is a 501c3 charitable group who support women in Rwanda pulling their families out of poverty with dignity. Humanely-sourced from home grown flocks of bunnies and sheep, this 50/50 blend is their most luxurious yarn yet! These rabbits receive the very best possible care. Their spacious custom-created cages are imported from the U.S. and they're provided with dry and safe shelter, high protein feed, fresh vegetable snacks twice a day and a 24-hour caregiver who resides with them. They are gently and carefully sheared every 90 days by a beloved staff member, a former barber. The wool from their own flocks of Merino sheep is triple washed before it is spun into yarn and then dyed organically in dye baths made by primarily Rwandan plants. These sheep receive meticulous 24-hour care so they will continue producing quality fleeces for the ladies working and selling through Handspun Hope. 50% Angora Rabbit and 50% merino wool You hold the power to help a Rwandan woman break the generational cycle of poverty.
