Yarn DROPS Cotton Merino – 50 g / 110 m

DROPS Cotton Merino is a soft, superwash-treated all-season yarn that combines 50% wool and 50% cotton. It is made from extra-fine merino wool and long cotton fibers, making the yarn pleasant to the touch, elastic, and very gentle on the skin. It is an excellent choice for both baby and children’s garments, as well as adult knitwear for all seasons.

This yarn is spun from many thin strands, which gives the knitted fabric beautiful roundness, elasticity, and a distinctive texture. DROPS Cotton Merino is especially suitable for cables, textured patterns, and moss stitch. Thanks to the superwash treatment, the yarn is easier to care for in everyday use.
