Natural White | Supersoft 100% Merino Yarn from New Zealand | Weight | 100g
100% merino yarn grown and processed in the high country of New Zealand's South Island. Thorough washing and rinsing result in this bundle of deliciously soft and squishy woolly goodness.
As the base for most of our colourways, it combines well with many other colours, either as the background or a highlight colour. This yarn is super-soft because it is made from high quality ultrafine fleece, with a micron count of less than 14, which is usually exported. The low micron count makes it super-soft; it does not effect the weight of the yarn which has been spun into both DK and 4 ply weights.
A cool handwash is recommended as our yarn is natural and untreated.
