New Zealand Merino - 8ply
New Zealand Merino DK / 8 Ply
Introducing the newest addition to our New Zealand Yarns collection – a beautifully soft, light and bouncy 100% New Zealand Merino that you’ll reach for again and again.
Spun from premium New Zealand merino wool, this yarn delivers all the cosy warmth you expect from an 8ply, yet feels wonderfully lightweight in the hand. The smooth, even twist creates excellent stitch definition, making it perfect for everything from simple stocking stitch to textured patterns and cables.
Incredibly soft against the skin, it’s an ideal choice for baby knits, children’s garments, and anyone who loves the comfort of pure merino. Think heirloom baby blankets, cosy sweaters, cardigans, hats, scarves and everyday accessories – all with that gentle warmth merino is loved for.
Light, breathable and naturally insulating, this is a versatile, all-season yarn that offers both comfort and performance.
