We Are Knitters | The Meriwool | Black

Meriwool 100% Superwash Merino Wool 

• MERINO IS KNOWN AS ONE OF THE BEST AND MOST EXCLUSIVE WOOLS BECAUSE OF ITS INCREDIBLE CHARACTERISTICS, IN PARTICULAR HOW LIGHT AND SOFT IT IS. 

• DESPITE BEING A FINE WOOL, MERINO KEEPS YOU COMPLETELY WARM BECAUSE ONCE IT HAS BEEN KNITTED, THE FIBERS HAVE A UNIQUE QUALITY THAT ALLOWS THEM TO MAINTAIN YOUR IDEAL BODY TEMPERATURE THROUGH BETTER INSULATION.

• THE  ADVANTAGE OF THIS SUPERWASHED FIBER IS THAT YOU CAN USE A WASHING MACHINE ON A DELICATE CYCLE AND MILD SOAP. REMEMBER TO DRY FLAT YOUR GARNMENTS SO THEY CAN STAY WITH YOU LOTS OF YEARS. 

• APPROX 100 GRAMS/136 METRES PER SKEIN
  

• WAK YARN IS DYED IN SMALL BATCHES. THIS MEANS THAT FROM ONE LOT TO ANOTHER THERE MAY BE A SLIGHT DIFFERENCE IN COLOR. IF YOU ARE UNSURE OF THE AMOUNT OF YARN YOU WILL NEED TO KNIT YOUR PROJECT, WE RECOMMEND THAT YOU ADD 1 OR 2 MORE SKIENS TO ENSURE THAT YOUR ENTIRE PROJECT HAS THE SAME TONE.
