Knitting for Olive's Heavy Merino is made of 100 % traceable, non-mulesed Merino wool. While Merino wool is one of the softest types of wool, the Heavy Merino is a bit more rustic and less soft than our thin Merino. The reason being is the wool is taken further from the sheep’s skin. Knitting for Olive's Heavy Merino is super strong, long-lasting and wears really well. It’s great for sweaters and can be combined with their Soft Silk Mohair for extra softness and fluffiness. The Heavy Merino is spun in a way to minimize pilling.
