Knitting for Olive Merino is a soft, versatile fingering weight yarn made from 100% non-mulesed merino wool. Each 50g ball contains 250 meters (273 yards), making it a beautiful choice for lightweight garments, colorwork, shawls, baby knits, accessories, and more.
Knitting for Olive's merino wool comes from sheep bred in Patagonia, where mulesing is not practiced. The wool is traceable back to the farm it comes from.
Merino wool is naturally temperature-regulating, helping retain warmth in cold weather while releasing heat in warmer conditions. It can also absorb moisture without feeling wet and is naturally dirt-repellent, making wool garments easier to care for.

Love this yarn! Bought it in “Licorice” (Black). Pairs perfectly with the KFO Soft Silk Mohair. I’m halfway into a Petite Knits Elisabeth blouse with this combo, and it’s been such an enjoyable experience so far.
