Merino Yarns
When it comes to merino wool in NZ, we've spent over 40 years making sure Wild & Woolly Yarns carries the very best. Merino is our most-loved fibre — and for good reason. Its ultra-fine staple makes it extraordinarily soft against the skin, without any of the scratchiness that puts people off traditional wool. It's the fibre that converts people from "I can't wear wool" to "I'll take three skeins."
New Zealand has a deep connection to merino — our high-country merino flocks produce some of the finest fibre in the world, and that quality shines through in the yarns you'll find here. Our merino range spans weights from delicate lace through to chunky, so whatever project you have in mind, there's a merino yarn to match.
Merino is naturally temperature-regulating, moisture-wicking, and machine washable in many of our treated options — making it as practical as it is beautiful. It's ideal for garments worn close to the skin: base layers, baby knits, scarves, and lightweight sweaters.
Browse our full merino collection online or come in and feel the difference for yourself at our Milford store. Our team loves nothing more than matching a maker to their perfect merino.
