Merino wool is a special type of wool that is known to be lighter and silkier than regular wool. It is a popular material for clothing due to its comfort against the skin, effective insulation, and moisture-wicking properties. Additionally, Merino wool is anti-static and itchless, odorless, and wrinkle-resistant, making it an ideal choice for those who prefer low-maintenance clothing.
Tussock (batch 02/23) is a type of Merino wool that has been specifically cultivated in the South Island of New Zealand. It has been washed in Timaru and processed in Christchurch, ensuring that it is of the highest quality. Each 50gm ball of Tussock contains 100% Merino wool and has a length of approximately 105m. It is recommended to use a 4mm needle and achieve a tension of 22sts x 30rows per 10cm when working with this wool.
To ensure that merino retains its shape and quality, it is recommended to wash it gently by hand. With its many beneficial properties and high quality, Tussock (batch 02/23) is an excellent choice for any project that requires Merino wool.
