Description: these yarns are made using an extra fine (19.5 micron) merino wool. It feels soft and gentle against the skin. These yarns are worsted spun from extra long staple fibres to produce a yarn that is fine and strong with a silky feel. This results in a super soft yarn that feels gentle against the skin. Knits up quickly and is ideal for last minute gifts. One hank is enough for a snuggly cowl, hat, fingerless mitts or headband. Ideal for children’s and baby clothes.
Care: although gentle machine washing with a 30°C wool programme is allowed, I recommend hand washing in room-warm water with a special wool detergent to keep the colours bright. Avoid wringing and twisting. Dry on a flat surface, out of direct sunlight. Avoid sudden changes in water temperature. Do not spin or tumble dry.
Country of origin: Australia
None of our wool comes from farms that use the mulesingprocedure.
