100% Non Mulesed SRS Australian Merino
Meterage: ~ 340m / weight 100g.
Gauge: 24-28sts to 10cm using 3.25mm - 3.75mm needles.
Characteristics: This worsted spun, non-superwash base has a lofty and bouncy 3 ply construction, which creates excellent stitch definition. It is perfect for next to skin wear.
Produced by Kirchelly Textiles, this single origin, non-super wash yarn is a new type of Merino. SRS (Soft Rolling Skin) Merino are bred to be non-wrinkled and plain bodied, making them naturally resistant to fly-strike and thus removing the need for mulesing in these flocks, resulting in better welfare. This trait also means that the shearer can clip closer to the body, and less frequently, resulting in longer fibres and over generations is projected to result in finer fibres.
Use: Works beautifully for light-mid weight garments and accessories such as sweaters, cowls, mitts, beanies and shawls.

Hand-dyed in small batches in Tasmania.
The beauty and nature of hand dyed yarn is that every skein is unique and individual. Even within the same dye batch variations between skeins can occur.
We therefore recommend alternating skeins within your projects to ensure an optimal finish and colour blending.
Please also ensure you buy enough yarn for your project at the time of purchase, as colours can vary between dye batches.
Our hand dyed yarns have been washed to remove excess dye, however some residual dye may remain, particularly in dark and saturated colourways.
It is recommended to gently hand wash your hand dyed projects in cold water.
Wool wash or a mild detergent may be used.
We recommend blocking and drying garments flat and not tumble drying.
Ready to Ship items will ship within 2-3 business days.
