My opinion of Drops Merino Extra Fine - 36

I usually knit with 4ply but I found a pattern in DK that looked attractive, so then had to decide which wool to use. I chose the Extra Fine and as I am now finishing off I can see my labour has been rewarded. It has made a very nice smooth garment that is just waiting for the buttons to be sewn on and then I will be parading my new effort.

soft

I have only begun using this, so I don't know how it will go long term or how it washes. It is lovely and soft.

Description

WHAT’S HER STORY?

DROPS Merino Extra Fine is cable spun from extra fine merino wool fibers from free-range animals in and South America. Garments made in this yarn are very comfortable and have a great surface quality. This yarn is gentle on the skin, and therefore great for baby and children garments.

 

DROPS Merino Extra Fine is spun from multiple thin strands, which gives the yarn extra elasticity. Is this special construction that makes it extra important to treat the garment right: make sure that you knit with the correct tension and rather use a tight tension than loose. Don’t wash your garment too warm, never leave it to soak and let the garment dry flat.

Made in EU

FAMOUS FOR…

Ideal for textured patterns such as cables and seed stitch, this yarn is superwash treated, which means it’s machine washable and suitable for everyday use.

 

This yarn has an Oeko-Tex® certification (certificate number 25.3.0110), Standard 100, Class I. This means that it has been tested and found completely free from harmful chemicals and that it is safe for human use. Class I is the highest level, and it means the yarn is suitable for baby articles (ages 0-3).
