The Opal Advantage

Opal is renowned for their innovative approach to colour and patterning. Their yarns are produced at the foot of Hohenzollern Castle in the knitting town of Hechingen, where the entire production process—from printing and washing to steaming and balling—takes place in one location. This commitment to quality and sustainability ensures you’re receiving a premium European product with minimal environmental impact.

Perfect For

  • One-ball sock projects (a single 100g ball creates a complete pair!)
  • Accessories like shawls, wraps, hats and scarves
  • Projects where you want stunning colour effects without changing yarns
