MERINO WOOL

Merino wool is the ideal choice for your needlework projects.
Merino wool is known for its softness and dense structure, making it a premium material for a wide range of needlework projects. Whether you want to spin a fine and airy yarn using the long draw technique or prefer a more compact and durable worsted yarn created with the short draw method, merino wool delivers exceptional results.

Merino wool is particularly suitable for projects that require finesse and precision, such as superfine knitting, crocheting or advanced lace work. With its unique combination of quality and versatility, merino wool is an obvious choice for beginners and professionals alike.

Merino wool – uncompromising quality and sustainability
Merino wool is made from 100% pure New Zealand wool that meets the highest quality standards. The wool comes from sheep that live under natural and ethical conditions on the lush fields of the South Island of New Zealand. Here the sheep graze freely in an environment that ensures their well-being, and the production is completely free of mulesing.

Quality and responsibility go hand in hand
With a focus on both quality and environmental concerns, merino wool is a conscious choice for those who want a product that combines first-class craftsmanship with responsible production.

Sustainable processing of wool
The wool undergoes a gentle, water-based washing process using environmentally friendly and biodegradable detergents. The dyeing is carried out with sustainable dyes that meet the requirements of Oeko-Tex Standard 100, ensuring a high level of environmental and health friendliness.

After dyeing, the wool is carefully steamed and dried before being carded and combed. Finally, it is rolled into skeins, ready for use without waste or the need for further processing.
