Description
DROPS Merino Extra Fine is cable spun from extra fine merino wool fibers from free-range animals in & South America. Garments made in this yarn are very comfortable & have a great surface quality. This yarn is gentle on the skin, doesn't shed, & therefore great for baby & children garments. This yarn has an Oeko-Tex® certification (certificate number 25.3.0110), Standard 100, Class I. This means that it has been tested & found completely free from harmful chemicals & that it is safe for human use. Class I is the highest level, & it means the yarn is suitable for baby articles (ages 0-3). Ideal for textured patterns such as cables & seed stitch, this yarn is superwash treated, which means it's machine washable & suitable for everyday use. DROPS Merino Extra Fine has both solid & mix colours - mix meaning that the wool is manufactured by carding the colours together before spinning, which gives the shade a mixed effect. 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 & rather use a tight tension than loose. Don't wash your garment too warm, never leave it to soak & let the garment dry flat.

ABOUT US: It all started with the memory of the sweaters my grandma made for me when I was a child. They are not just sweaters, they are her loving touch in every stitch. One day I picked up a pair of knitting needles & a ball of yarn & everything fell into place. Love is an action, love is patience & I'm at my happiest when I have a new project in mind. When I see the spark in my mother's eyes when she strokes the blanket I made for her or the excitement on my son's face when he wakes up to a new hat & scarf set & the pride when he shows them off to everyone saying "mummy made them for me!".. this makes my enjoyment in creating & making even more meaningful. My passion for creating led to my passion in yarn, & I want to share that with you. It brings me joy knowing that I have inspired the creations that will be enjoyed by you & your loved ones for a long time. I brought together a thoughtfully selected collection of natural fibre yarn.
