Tencel/ wool/ elastane fine rib knit fabric in a desaturated, brownish olive green colour (it has a subtle marled or variegated look to it).  Fabric is only opaque when completely unstretched, becoming more translucent as you stretch it.   It is soft and comfortable against the skin, with a slight dry hand-feel (it also feels slightly more "woolly" than the caramel version).  Cut edges curl just slightly.  Suitable for clothing such as long johns or other base layers, lightweight turtlenecks or cardigans, long or short-sleeved tees, camisoles, kids wear, or even underwear.  Fabric has excellent drape, and somewhat loose (as opposed to "firm") stretch, with very good recovery.

Wool is naturally odour-resistant, breathable, moisture-wicking (so it dries really quickly), and temperature-regulating.   I personally can't wear regular sheeps wool, but I find the wool fabrics in the shop comfortable to wear and not scratchy at all.  Still, please buy with care if your skin is very sensitive.
