Extrafine (19.5 microns) merino is used for these yarns so they feel soft and gentle against the skin. Very soft and springy, the 4 plies and twist provide extra robustness.

A very versatile yarn, it can be used for socks, shawls, wraps, mittens and light jumpers.

Washable in cold water on a gentle cycle, it is also suitable for children’s and baby clothes.

Old name was Merino 4
