Wooly Worsted Merino Yarn
Wooly Worsted Merino Yarn
Squishy, classic stitches, beautiful loft, and a palette designed to make your creative ideas come to life. 🌤️✨
There is a reason worsted weight yarn is the classic, time-tested choice for everyday hand-knits. It is that perfect, comforting middle ground where projects build beautifully and quickly on your needles, creating durable, cozy pieces that you will want to live in.
Wooly Worsted is the very first yarn line I started the company with. I wanted to design an everyday workhorse yarn that felt completely luxurious in your hands while you knit and blissfully soft against your skin when you wear it.
Spun in Italy from premium, fine Australian merino wool, Wooly Worsted features a custom 3-ply construction and a beautifully balanced twist. This special engineering gives the strand an amazing, springy bounce that brings your favorite textures to life. Cables stand up with gorgeous dimension, garter stitch rows stay soft and lofty, and classic stockinette looks perfectly smooth, plush, and uniform.
Projects You'll Love to Cast On:
-
Cozy Sweaters & Cardigans: Gives everyday garments a lovely, lightweight loft and comforting warmth without a single bit of scratchiness.
-
Warm Hats & Cold-Weather Accessories: The ideal choice for plush beanies, texturing cowls, and thick winter mittens that keep the chill away.
-
Heirloom Baby Blankets: Beautifully thick, cozy, and entirely gentle on the most delicate skin.
Mix, Match, and Live Your Life
Because this line is built entirely into our coordinated painter's palette, you can mix solid hues or play with high contrast with total confidence. Go for a rich holiday pop like Red Velvet, cozy up with Forest Fern, or soften your palette with classic neutrals like Vanilla or Wheat.
Best of all, premium quality doesn't mean high-maintenance rules. Wooly Worsted is 100% superwash merino wool, so it goes straight into the regular family wash in cool water and can tumble dry on low. It blooms beautifully after every laundry day, making your handmade projects as practical for real life as they are joyful to create. Skip the winding, pick your favorite colors, and treat your needles to instant stitching joy!

Looks and feels great. I have another project to complete before start this. I may just save this for a vacation treat!
Another great pattern for beginners. Very easy to follow and the kits have interesting color combinations or create your own combination.
Always liked Heather’s patterns (made several different ones)
I love the kit, I did think I was going to be able to get a pdf of the pattern as well. Anyway I can get this?

Colorful Circle Stitch Markers for Knitting Projects
How can I get the download to use for Charity Knitting? Thank you.
This yarn is perfect for any project. It works up easily and the stitch definition is superb. I knit a sweater with the color lavender, it is just beautiful. The only drawback, and it is minor, is that it is sold as 50 gram balls; 100 grams would be ideal.
I love the my color choice (Ewe deep blue sea) for this Shawl kit. The yarn is so soft and very easy to knit!
Great little reminder to fix an OOPS! Great tool.
Great lovely useful scissors have been searching for this type for a lomg time!
I haven’t used them yet but they look helpful!
