Great Northern Yarns was founded with the goal of creating the world's finest luxury yarns and selling directly to the knitter on our website at wholesale prices. We created and are the sole global distributor of our exclusive 70% mink 30% cashmere yarn. We sell an exceptionally fine 100% premium cashmere yarn in lace and DK weights (so soft!). We recently added 100% Yak yarn in a versatile DK weight. By distributing directly to knitters ourselves we are able to keep prices extremely low. It is important to understand no animals are harmed making the mink cashmere yarn. Healthy, stress-free minks sheared once a year produce the richest, most lustrous fibers. We are delighted to bring these wonderful yarns to you at real wholesale prices.
