Collection: SRS Merino 8 Ply

The Yarn

100% SRS (Soft Rolled Skin) Merino Wool.

8 Ply (fingering weight) 200m per 100 gram skein.

This yarn is so deliciously soft with a light sheen and smoothness that you almost won't believe it is a non superwash yarn. It is just delightful to knit and crochet and also to wear, even right next to your skin. The sheep are clipped at 100mm rather than 60mm which keeps the staple long to give the smooth look and feel, reduces pilling and reduces felting. It really is a premium quality product that we are happy to introduce to our customers.
