Organic Merino 166

ORGANIC MERINO 166

Our super soft Organic Merino 166 consists of 100% non-superwashed organic merino, and has a yardage of 166 metres/100g.

The organic merino wool comes from Uruguay, which is one of the world leaders in the breeding of organic merino sheep. The sheeps are fed exclusively with organic feed that is not sprayed with pesticides and is NON-GMO. The sheep are on pasture their whole life. he wool is subsequently spun in Peru, and it is only washed prior to spinning and otherwise not further treated, which preserves the wool’s fine properties (water and dirt repellent, self-cleaning, etc.).

This quality is incredibly soft and absolutely “non-scratchy” and can be used for a wide range of projects; clothing, various accessories, children’s and baby knitwear and much more.

We recommend knitting needles 5 – 7 mm.

NOTE. Please be aware that the yarn is hand-dyed in small batches, and colors may vary from one dye lot to another.
