Ulysse from De Rerum Natura

Ulysse is, like its big brother Gilliatt, a woolen spun yarn made from a blend of white French Mérinos d'Arles (Provence) and black Portuguese merino (Alentejo valley) raised with a concern for the well-being of the animals and the valorisation of their wool.  All the manufacturing stages of this yarn are carried out in a short circuit (Belgium or Italy for washing, France for spinning, twisting and dyeing) with a constant desire for traceability and reduction of its impact on the environment. It is available in natural colors resulting from the mixture of brown and white fleeces and in a palette of subtly mottled dyed colors. Ulysses is named after the hero of the "Odyssey" who fell in love with Penelope.
