Dale of Norway–maker of all the coolest ski sweaters–has a new yarn, Hauk, that’s been coated with teflon for super snow & rain durability:

I moistened the top of one swatch, set it on a piece of paper, and came back several minutes later–the water was still on top, and the paper was still dry. By comparison, the water passed through my Heilo swatches and onto the paper below.

You may remember that I made a few hats last year, and this year I have to make a few as gifts (in a different pattern!) — I’m very much looking forward to checking out this Teflon yarn, woo. And can I just say, awesome name?! Hauk!
