MERINO 100, 50 g

Concept by Katia Merino 100 is a warm and soft merino wool yarn, ideal for sweaters, cardigans, and cable knits. It is also highly recommended for accessories such as beanies, hoods, mittens, scarves, and cowls. This high-quality and versatile all-purpose yarn is suitable for both knitting and crochet.

The yarns in Katia’s Merino range are among our most important natural fiber yarns. They are spun from the finest mulesing-free extrafine merino wool. The Superwash treatment makes the yarn easy to care for, allowing garments made from it to be machine washed at 30 °C.

Merino 100 is produced using a multi-stage spinning process. During this process, the fibers are combed parallel and the shortest fibers are removed, resulting in an exceptionally soft and durable yarn with a beautifully smooth and slightly lustrous finish. This high-quality yarn is ideal for premium knitwear for the whole family.

The merino wool originates from Australia and South America, and the yarn is spun in Spain.
