500g 4ply Merino wool cone - 100% Merino wool

Our 4ply Merino wool yarn is the perfect choice for makers who like a luxurious yarn with a soft touch. This yarn will create a fabric that's squishy, breathable and easy to care for.

This yarn is fibre dyed, meaning all shades in this range have a subtle mélange look. Hold one strand for lightweight knits and lacework or hold two strands together for DK weight projects.

Why choose Merino wool?

Merino sheep are world famous for having one of the highest quality fleece of any breed of sheep. The short and fine fibres used in Merino yarn create a luxurious and soft texture that has all the resilience needed to create long-lasting projects. At Woolyknit, we source our Merino wool from areas of the world where the process of mulesing isn't carried out. Click here to view our certifications.
