Description

Merino wool is one of the finest and softest wools in the world, this makes it perfect for next to the skin wear like shawls and baby wear. The yarn was finished as a single ply yarn which gives it a soft and delicate texture.
This fibre was hand-dyed with professional wool dyes using my slow cooker dyeing method for colour fastness.
This yarn was finished as a single ply yarn which gives it a soft and delicate texture. The fibre has been left on the bobbin before being wound onto a niddy noddy (to create a skein) for at least a week in order to let the twist settle and remove any trapped energy in the twist. It has then been washed and ‘thwacked’ to remove any further energised twists that may still be in the yarn.
The yarn thickness is in the 1” notch of the wooden gauge.

Wool ply – 4ply
Recommended needle size – 2-3.5mm
