Approximately 77m per 100g ball. Wound on wool winder, no ball bands/labels. Tension: 14 stitches x 16 rows = 10cm x 10cm on 7mm needles.
*** Shades available in this range include: Cream, Biscuit, Light Brown, Fallow Brown, Sepia Brown, Auburn Rust, Mint Green, Dark Purple and Dark Bluey Purple *** (all listed separately).
Please Note: This wool has a natural texture. It is NOT superwash wool and is therefore not as soft as superwash wools can be. (Superwash wool is softer because the wool has been placed in an acid bath to remove the 'scales' from the fibre. It is then coated with a polymer which means the wool can be machine washed without shrinking. The texture of this 100% Merino Sheep Wool is much more natural; it still has its scales as it hasn't been treated with acid nor coated with polymer; much kinder to the environment!
Aftercare: To avoid shrinking, handwash gently in cool water. Re-shape while damp and dry flat away from direct heat. Do not tumble dry. Very, very cool iron if needed.
(It felts beautifully! For felting projects, knit on larger needles and wash at 60 degrees in machine with a couple of old towels. It felts so that no stitches can be seen).
I have tried to show the colour and thickness as accurately as possible in the photo. It looks accurate on my screen, but all screens vary.
