Superwash Merino DK is a lovely standard DK weight yarn made from 100% superwashed merino, the fibres have been specially treated before being spun to enable it to be machine washable. It is a great yarn for an easy-care garment. The merino is 21 micron and therefore very soft and not at all itchy or scratchy next to the skin. With a 4/9nm construction the yarn has lovely stitch definition and can be readily used in any pattern using a standard DK weight yarn.
​The merino is mulesing free, comes from South America and is 100% animal fibre
