Merino wool

Merino wool - soft, sustainable and perfect for your next knitting project

Merino wool is one of the most popular yarns for knitting and crochet projects! It is wonderfully soft, temperature-regulating and comfortable to wear against the skin. The fine fibers of merino sheep provide natural elasticity and thermal insulation, so you can use it for your projects all year round.

What is merino wool?

Merino wool comes from merino sheep, a breed known for its particularly fine and high-quality wool. Compared to conventional wool, it is not itchy as the fibers are very fine. The extra-fine merino wool is particularly soft.

Why do we love merino wool for our knitting projects?

✔ It is soft & skin-friendly - perfect for sensitive skin, even for baby knitwear.
✔ It is temperature-regulating - warms in winter, cools in summer.
✔ It is moisture-regulating - transports sweat away and remains breathable.
✔ It is sustainable & durable - High-quality merino yarns are easy to care for and hard-wearing.
