Why Merino Wool?
Merino wool is prized among crafters for its incredibly soft fibre, natural breathability, and temperature-regulating properties. Unlike coarser wools, it is gentle against the skin, making it ideal for garments worn close to the body — from babies' first knits to cosy winter accessories. The natural elasticity of the worsted-spun fibre also helps your finished projects hold their shape beautifully over time.
Perfect for All Skill Levels
Whether you are just picking up your first pair of needles or you are a seasoned knitter, this medium-thick yarn is forgiving, easy to work with, and produces stunning results. The Morandi colour palette ensures your finished pieces have a timeless, sophisticated look that never goes out of style.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What needle size is recommended for this Merino wool yarn?
A: The recommended needle size for this 100% Merino wool worsted yarn is 4.0mm straight/rod needles. For crochet projects, a 3.0mm hook works beautifully with the ± 2.0mm yarn diameter.
Q: How much yarn is in each ball, and how many balls will I need for a scarf or hat?
A: Each ball weighs 50 ± 2 grams. For a standard adult hat you would typically need 2–3 balls, and for a medium-length scarf approximately 3–5 balls depending on your stitch pattern and tension. We recommend purchasing a few extra balls from the same dye lot to ensure colour consistency throughout your project.
Q: Is this Merino wool yarn suitable for baby clothing?
A: Yes! 100% Merino wool is naturally soft and gentle, making it a popular choice for baby garments, booties, and blankets. It is significantly softer than standard wool and is less likely to cause irritation on delicate skin.
Q: How should I care for items knitted with this Merino wool yarn?
A: For best results, hand wash finished items in cool water with a gentle wool-safe detergent. Lay flat to dry, reshaping as needed. Avoid tumble drying or wringing, as heat and agitation can cause wool fibres to felt and shrink.
