Fluffy Fingering Merino Wool Yarn
Fluffy Fingering Merino Wool Yarn
Rhythmic rows. Light-as-air fabrics. The quiet joy of a fine texture growing line by line on your needles. 🌤️✨
There is a unique kind of magic that belongs entirely to lightweight project bags. It’s the portable freedom of a project that travels with you anywhere, waiting patiently to turn a quiet afternoon into a moment of pure creative joy.
Fluffy Fingering is the thinnest member of the Ewe Ewe family, but it packs every bit of the signature bounce, plumpness, and spring that our yarns are loved for. I custom-engineered this yarn because I wanted to take the intimidation out of fine-gauge knitting. Forget thin, stringy, or splitty wools—this yarn is a true joy to hold and watch fly across your needles.
Spun in Italy from premium, super-fine Australian merino wool, Fluffy Fingering features a beautifully balanced 3-ply construction. This special design creates an exceptionally smooth canvas that makes delicate lace look incredibly crisp, makes colorwork stitches pop cleanly side-by-side, and gives classic stockinette a luxurious, professional finish.
Projects That Wear Beautifully:
-
Delicate Shawls & Wraps: Creates a fluid, cloud-like drape that adds a perfect layer of warmth to any outfit.
-
Everyday Socks: Bouncy and soft enough to keep your feet cozy and comfortable all day long.
-
Lightweight Sweaters: The ultimate choice for trans-seasonal garments, fine yokes, and heirloom baby clothes.
Coordinated Color, Designed for Modern Life
Because this line is built entirely into our coordinated painter's palette system, our solid shades coordinate across our yarn weights. You can easily transition a color scheme from a chunky winter throw straight into a delicate spring accessory!
Best of all, luxury doesn't mean high-maintenance! Fluffy Fingering is 100% superwash merino, meaning it can safely go right into the regular family wash in cool water. Choose your favorite tones, find a sunlit corner, and settle into the relaxing knitting rhythm of your next beautiful creation.

Questions you might have
What is Fluffy Fingering made of?
It's 100% fine superwash merino wool from Australia, spun and dyed at a mill in Italy to my specifications. The mill doesn't make this yarn for any other brand. It comes in 21 solid shades.
Will it pill?
The three plies are spun with a high twist to keep the fibers clinging to each other, which helps prevent the loose ends that can pill. The yarn is soft, so some pilling may occur, and it only gets softer with time and love.
How do I care for it?
My main recommendation is to soak your finished project in Soak Wash or another wool wash and block it, because blocking is where the stitches bloom. Fluffy Fingering is also machine washable (inside out in cool water) and can tumble dry low, so everyday care is easy.
How much yarn do I need?
Each pattern page lists the yarn amounts. I'm always happy to help calculate yardage, so email hello@eweewe.com with your project and I'll help. If you're between amounts, it's better to order a little extra. Dye lots vary from batch to batch, and I can't replace a specific lot once it has sold out.
Can I use Fluffy Fingering in a pattern I found?
Yes! I'm happy to help you substitute Ewe Ewe yarns into another pattern. Email me the pattern and I'll help you work it out. For comparing gauge, Fluffy Fingering is 7 stitches to 1" on a size US 2 needle, with 200 yards per 50g skein.
Do the colors match across the yarn weights?
Yes. Our solid shades are coordinated across our yarn weights. Wooly Worsted and Ewe So Sporty come in all 28 shades, Baa Baa Bulky in 25, and Fluffy Fingering in 21.
Will the color look like the photo?
Screens vary, so a color can look a little different in person. If you're unsure about a shade, email me before you order and I'll help you choose.
How soon will my order ship, and what does it cost?
I pack and ship orders within one business day, six days a week including Saturday mornings. They go out by USPS Ground Advantage from Oceanside, California, so delivery time depends on USPS and where you live. Shipping is free on US orders over $75 and $5 on smaller US orders, and you'll get a tracking email when your order is on its way.
Can I return my yarn?
Unused items in their original condition can be returned within 30 days of receiving them. Email hello@eweewe.com with your name and order number and I'll take care of you. If something arrives damaged or isn't what you ordered, let me know right away and I'll make it right.
Let customers speak for us
Making for Halloween. The colors pop. The yarn feels so soft.
An oops. Plus usually when I buy EWE EWE bundles the pattern is included, not this time.
this Wooly Worsted MerinoYarn is beautiful and extremely soft to the touch. The color is rich and true and will make an amazing looking sweater. I can’t wait to start using this yarn then actually wearing it. I highly recommend this yarn from Ewe Ewe Yarns!
Where is the link to download the hat
The yarn is wonderful and customer service is top notch.
There will be knots in some skeins which is normal. I don't know if this will pill or not until it's knit into something but it's the nature of Merino to do so but that doesn't bother me. I only needed 3 skeins but the price was so good that I bought 5. It's super soft like you would expect and the proper thickness for a fingering sock weight. I split the skeins into (6) 56 to 58 gram skeins and dyed up 5. They took the dye nicely and I am pleased with my results. My yarn was packaged well/nicely and shipped VERY quickly and arrived at my doorstep safe and sound. I would purchase this again.
I ordered the baa bag bulky for my hat pattern, that I also bought from Eye eye yarns. I love this yarn !! It is so nice to work with. It is also soo soft!
I really like the pattern. Beautiful!
I love these little scissors. They fit perfectly with all of my other knitting accessories in my tote and they even have their own case. They are sharp and easy to use!

Temperature Tee Yarn Kit
I’ve been waiting for the perfect yarn to start on my new wearable and the perfect pattern to do it with. Ewe Ewe has provided both. Not to mention the care and thoughtfulness of Heather, the owner , which makes it all the more fabulous!
I was open, when I ordered more yarn, to receive a different dye lot. I just figured for this children’s sweater I could make it work. Imagine my delight when I received the same dye lot! And quickly! I’m charged and almost finished!
I absolutely love this yarn. I had to buy more to make a hat and scarf!
