Mer-made (merino made washable) is a new machine
washable yarn that
we are adding to our line of yarns. The DK weight yarn knits like a
sport weight yarn at 6-7 sts per inch on size 3 needles and the
fingering weight knits at 8-9 sts per inch on size 1. The
yarn is
packaged in 4 ounce skeins with about 260 yards/skein for the DK weight
and 360 yards/skein for the fingering weight. One skein of DK weight
will make a pair of socks to fit a woman's foot up to shoe size 8. The
fingering weight will make a larger sock.
While we are unable to spin machine washable yarn on our machinery, it is hand dyed and painted at our mill. |
