Worsted Pure Superwash Merino Wool. Soft, strong, and washable, this 4-ply yarn is our workhorse! The plies help resist pilling and washability makes it fantastic for frequently-worn garments, housewares, and children and baby clothes. And like all our yarns, it’s super soft and great for next-to-the-skin wear! Spun from our premium superwash merino, it comes in an array of semi-solid colours. Great for: Accessories, garments, baby and kids items, housewares, toys, cables, textured stitches, colourwork. Be sure to get enough yarn to complete your project since each bag is a different dye lot, and skeins may vary from bag to bag. As this is a hand-dyed yarn, each skein is unique. We recommend striping alternate skeins when using more than one in order to achieve a more natural gradation.
