Day 6: Fingering Weight Essential – 100% Super Wash Merino Fingering
Today we’re featuring our 100% super wash Merino fingering base, a yarn that’s as refined as it is versatile. Lightweight, smooth, and oh-so-soft, this 2-ply yarn is the go-to choice for everything from delicate shawls to light weight sweaters. But what truly sets it apart is its ability to pair beautifully with other yarns, opening up a world of creative possibilities.
Why we love it:
Soft yet resilient: The 100% super wash merino fibres offer the perfect combination of softness and elasticity, making it comfortable for wear and easy to work with.
Crisp stitch definition: This fingering weight yarn allows for precise stitch definition, making it ideal for lace and textured patterns that really pop.
Double up: Our Merino fingering skeins work wonderfully when paired with other bases, like our lace-weight Kid Mohair Silk. This combination creates a stunning effect, where the merino provides structure and softness, while the mohair adds a delicate halo of texture, creating a beautiful balance between drape and volume.
Durability meets luxury: While incredibly soft, merino is known for its natural durability, making it a fantastic choice for both heirloom pieces and everyday accessories.
Effortless drape: The lightweight structure of our Merino fingering base ensures that your garments and shawls have a fluid, graceful drape without the heaviness of thicker yarns.
What makes it special:
Our Merino super wash fingering yarn is a versatile and luxurious option for any project that requires a bit of finesse. Whether you use it alone for a sleek, refined look or combine it with Kid Mohair Silk for that soft, ethereal effect, it will bring vibrancy and elegance to your creations. Plus, its super wash properties make it easy to care for, giving you the perfect blend of beauty and practicality.
