Description

Product information "DMC Merino Essentiel Ombre - 1011"

DMC Merino Essentiel Ombre yarn combines 50% merino wool and 50% acrylic in a soft, durable yarn with gradual changes in colour. The wool provides warmth, while the colour transition adds character to a winter jumper or blanket.

Is it suitable for winter projects?

Yes, it is suitable for winter garments and blankets. The gradual changes in colour become part of the pattern in the knitted fabric.

How should I wash it to prevent shrinking?

Wash in cold water with a wool detergent and dry flat. Wool can felt when rubbed in warm water, so treat the finished garment gently.

Which needles should I use, and will it suit my pattern?

As a guide, the tension is 14 stitches per 10 cm on 5.5 mm circular needles. Check the yarn thickness, tension and needles specified in your pattern against these details; if the tension does not match, try a different needle size.

First, make a tension square and wash it as you would the finished garment. If your next project calls for a different colour effect rather than a gradient, take a look at other DMC yarns.
