About Koigu Wool Designs

Koigu Wool Designs has a history as bold and unique as the yarns and colors they produce. The name Koigu was chosen to honor the ancestral home of Maie's late husband, Harry, which is located in their native Estonia. The farm that now serves as the Koigu headquarters was purchased by Maie and Harry Landra in 1972. Bringing first Koigu's Premium Merino yarn into existence. The yarn is light, so it can be worn indoors and out, soft, so it can be worn next to the skin, and of course, 100% merino. In an age when thicker yarns that yield quicker results were all the rage, KPPPM was an anomaly. An anomaly that everyone had to have. Koigu's signature yarn became legendary, known for its wearability, its versatility, and above all, the stunning colorways. For the first 5 years, Koigu's Painter's Palette Premium Merino (affectionately known as KPPPM by its many admirers) was dyed in the kitchen of the Landra farmhouse and dried either outside on the pine trees, or hung inside over the bathtub. As demand for the exquisite yarn escalated, the family began work on a wool shed. Read their story
