Heavy Merino is made of 100 % traceable, non-mulesed Merino wool. While Merino wool is one of the softest types of wool, our Heavy Merino is a bit more rustic and less soft than Knitting for Olive's thin Merino. The reason being is the wool is taken further from the sheep’s skin. Heavy Merino is super strong, long-lasting and wears really well. It’s great for sweaters and can be combined with Knitting for Olive's Soft Silk Mohair for extra softness and fluffiness. Heavy Merino is spun in a way to minimize peeling.
