Description

This yarn is hand dyed in small batches, resulting in beautiful and one-of-a-kind color variations in every skein. Merino Single is perfect for patterns featuring stockinette, such as colorwork, as the soft and delicate single ply structure brings out the best in these techniques. The fibers are also mulesing free and superwash treated, making the yarn easier to care for. Made from 100% fine merino wool, Merino Single is sure to be a favorite in your stash.

Care Symbols

Gentle/Wool wash cycle (max. 30°C), iron cool (max. 110°C), do not bleach, do not tumble dry, dry flat.

The yarn is rinsed with a mild detergent before hung to dry, but the darker colors may show some bleeding in the first wash.

Superwash yarn can be washed in the washing machine, but for a longer life of your handmade garments and with regard to the delicate structure of single plied yarn, I recommend hand wash.

This yarn is dyed in skein form (big loops of yarn). Wind it into a ball to start knitting/crocheting/weaving.
The mulesing free, superwash merino wool is labeled as “Virgin Wool” or “New Wool”, as decreed by the EU-regulations for the labeling of non-recycled “new” sheep’s wool.
Each batch of hand-dyed yarn is slightly different. The movement of the dye through water creates variations between skeins, even from the same batch. Hand-dyed yarn is known for its uniquely beautiful nuances that only occur as a result of individally dyeing skeins in small batch sizes.
I try to represent the colors as true as possible, but depending on your monitor settings the colors may be displayed differently.
