Why Choose Merry Merino 140?
🐑 Soft & Luxurious Merino Wool – Made from 100% organic merino, this yarn is gentle enough to wear next to the skin, even for those with sensitivities.
🌍 Eco-Friendly Machine Washability – Unlike traditional superwash wool, which is treated with chemicals or plastic coatings, Merry Merino 140 undergoes an enzyme-based process that uses only air and electricity to make it machine washable. This method also consumes less energy than conventional superwash treatments.
✔️ GOTS Certified – This yarn meets the highest ecological and social sustainability standards, certified by the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) for ethical and environmentally responsible production.
🍼 Perfect for Baby & Lightweight Knits – The gentle, chemical-free treatment, combined with its lightweight feel, makes it an excellent choice for babywear, lightweight sweaters, and soft accessories.
🎯 Great Yardage for Lighter Knits – With 140m per 50g ball, Merry Merino 140 provides excellent stitch definition and durability, making it ideal for projects requiring a finer gauge.
