Knitting for Olive Merino Sand

A delightfully rustic,  wool yarn for wool lovers!  Spun with 100% traceable, Merino wool, Merino is a fine gauge fingering weight yarn that is ideal for cold weather garments & accessories.  Warm & toasty, this yarn has a classic, heritage feel.

Strong & durable, this yarn knits into garments that will last.  It is also wonderful combined with Knitting for Olive Soft Silk Mohair to add extra softness & fluffiness, as well as depth of color.  The gentle halo adds a beautiful, rich character to sweaters, cardigans, hats, cowls & scarves.

Be inspired by the soothing, modern palette of wearable colorways.

*The Merino wool in Cotton Merino is RMS-certified (Responsible Wool Standard ensures animals, farmers & environment are treated with respect)
