Description:

Superwash Merino 4-Ply Mini Skeins are super soft, easy-care, warm and versatile, and one of our best selling yarns in mini skein format! They’re perfect for colourwork or gradient packs.

We deliberately use a fine 21-micron merino fibre in the yarn, so it has a soft handle and is not itchy or scratchy next to the skin. The fingering weight yarn comes in a bright white colour that absorbs dyes excellently. Acid dyes used on this 100% animal fibre will produce rich, long-lasting hues that are very resistant to fading.

Merino wool has a natural elasticity, helping garments maintain their fit and shape over time. Our Superwash Merino 4-ply Mini Skeins are spun with four individual plies of fibre twisted together, giving knitted garments structure and strength, while remaining soft and cosy. The yarn is ideal for projects where both softness and durability are important, such as socks, mittens, or baby garments.

The merino has been specially treated to create an easy-care yarn that can be safely machine washed or dyed without risk of shrinking or felting. This superwash merino comes from South America where mulesing is not practiced.
