Description

Product information "Schachenmayr Merino Extrafine 120 – 00147 violet"

Schachenmayr Merino Extrafine 120 yarn - 100 % merino wool: this springy, warm yarn helps cables and stranded colourwork stay well defined. It is used to knit jumpers and cardigans where a clear pattern in the knitted fabric matters.

Does merino wool feel scratchy?

The merino wool here is fine and soft; some knitters say this yarn is pleasant to knit with.

Which needles should I use, and will the tension match the pattern?

Knitters choose their needles by working a tension square. Check the yarn thickness in the specifications against that given in the pattern, along with the stitches per 10 cm and needle size; the guide for this yarn is 22 stitches per 10 cm. Start with 3–4 mm circular needles, and change needle size if the tension does not match.

Check the amount of yarn needed against the pattern for your size. Before you begin, knit and gently wash your tension square: wool can felt through friction in warm water. If the pattern calls for yarn of a different thickness, compare it with other Schachenmayr yarns.
