Opal Sock Yarn - Hundertwasser

 

Experience the Magic of Hundertwasser in Every Stitch! 

Step into a world where art meets yarn with Opal's extraordinary Hundertwasser Collection. Inspired by the bold, revolutionary paintings of Friedensreich Hundertwasser, this self-striping sock yarn captures the Austrian artist's signature style of vivid colours, organic shapes, and architectural whimsy.

Each colourway is thoughtfully designed to echo Hundertwasser's distinctive palette and artistic philosophy, where straight lines are banished and nature's spirals reign supreme. Watch as your knitting creates mesmerising colour transitions that mirror the artist's famous works, bringing his artistic vision to life in every row.

Opal - a family company. 


The Zwerger family formula is simple.  Be the best at what they make, employ local families and train them to be the best. Putting sustainable production always as their highest priority.  Supporting sheep farmers, ensuring all of the wool is ethically sourced and then adding colour, design and joy into every ball. 


Back in the day the Zwerger family invented the process for mass producing self-striping wool. Today they are the leaders in global sock wool. Put both together, and yarns depicting the great painters of Europe like Hundertwasser, Van Gogh and others, self-stipe to make a masterpieces on your feet.

 

Why not sponsor a sheep that your Opal socks could come from with their Schafpate project?
