Collection: Merino Wool

Merino Wool – Softness, Warmth & Versatility in Every Stitch

Merino wool is one of the most beloved yarns worldwide. It comes from Merino sheep, originally bred in Spain and now raised in Australia, New Zealand, South America, and Europe. Merino fibers are significantly finer than regular wool, making the yarn exceptionally soft and skin-friendly.

Benefits of Merino Wool

• Super-soft – gentle on the skin, perfect even for babies and sensitive users.
• Thermoregulating – keeps you warm in winter and cool in summer.
• Moisture-wicking – absorbs sweat and remains dry to the touch.
• Elastic and durable – holds shape well and resists deformation with proper care.
• Natural and sustainable – biodegradable, renewable, and hypoallergenic.
