Frequently Asked Questions
What needle or hook size is recommended?
This yarn works best with knitting needles US size 7–8 (4.5–5mm) or a crochet hook in the 4.5–5.0mm range for a standard worsted gauge.
Is merino wool soft enough for garments?
Yes — merino is one of the softest wool fibers available and is generally comfortable even for those with mild wool sensitivity. It’s a popular choice for next-to-skin garments like sweaters and scarves.
How should I care for merino wool projects?
Hand wash in cool water with a gentle wool wash and lay flat to dry. Avoid wringing, agitation, or heat to prevent felting.
How many balls do I need for a project?
This depends on your project size and gauge. As a general guide: a hat typically uses 1–2 balls, a scarf 3–5 balls, and a sweater 8–12+ balls. Each ball is 50g / 130m.
