Our Ewe-Nique Merino wool is beautiful and soft, a worsted spun 100% pure Merino yarn. We previously introduced Ewe-nique Merino in lace weight and due to popularity we have added the same yarn in a DK weight. These cozy bundles of cream merino combine simplicity and luxury. Sourced from the soft fleece of Merino sheep, it brings a natural warmth and gentle feel to your crafting. We are selling these skeins in packs of 1kg – 10 skeins.

The cream colour adds a classic and versatile touch. Its softness makes it perfect for various knitting or crocheting projects, whether you’re crafting a delicate shawl, snug blanket, or cosy pullover. The fibres are finely spun for a smooth and pliable texture that’s easy to work with. This wool is lightweight and offers great stitch definition, making it suitable for a range of patterns.

As you work with this yarn, you might catch a subtle hint of its organic origin, a nod to the sheep it came from. With its understated beauty and versatility, these bundles of cream merino wool invite crafters to create with comfort and a touch of elegance.

Merino as a breed of sheep were established in Spain near the end of the Middle Ages, and were for several centuries kept as a strict Spanish monopoly; exports of the breed were not allowed, and those who tried risked capital punishment. During the eighteenth century, flocks were sent to the courts of a number of European countries, and subsequently spread to many parts of the world, including South Africa, Australia, and New Zealand.
