Worsted Weight Merino Yarn

Description

Worsted weight merino wool yarn is a popular choice among knitters and crocheters due to its ideal balance of warmth, softness, and durability. Classified as a medium-weight yarn, worsted weight is versatile and easy to work with, making it suitable for a wide range of projects, from cozy sweaters and scarves to hats and blankets. When spun from merino wool—a breed known for its exceptionally fine and soft fleece—the yarn gains a luxurious feel that is gentle on the skin, even for those with sensitivities.

Merino wool also boasts excellent breathability and moisture-wicking properties, helping regulate body temperature in both cool and warm conditions. Worsted spinning further enhances the yarn’s strength and stitch definition by aligning the fibers and removing short strands, resulting in a smooth, even texture that showcases detailed patterns beautifully. Whether you’re crafting garments for everyday wear or heirloom-quality gifts, worsted weight merino wool offers a dependable, high-performance fiber that elevates any handmade piece.
