How the yarn behaves

DROPS Merino Extra Fine is a superwash-treated yarn made from extra fine merino wool from mulesing-free South American flocks. Spun from multiple thin strands, it has good elasticity and a beautifully even surface that shows cables, seed stitch and other textures crisply. It is soft on the skin, Oeko-Tex Class I certified for baby contact and machine washable, making it a practical everyday choice for sweaters, cardigans, hats, mittens, baby garments and accessories; it crochets well too. A slightly tighter rather than looser tension is recommended for the best fabric and stitch definition. Care: machine wash on a gentle wool cycle without fabric softener and dry flat.
