Product information "Schachenmayr Merino Extrafine 170 - 00005 camel"
Schachenmayr Merino Extrafine 170 yarn is soft and made from 100 % merino wool, with a springy feel in knitted fabric. Stitches and cables are well defined, making it suitable for a warm garment with a distinctive pattern.
How does merino wool feel against the skin?
Some knitters say the yarn does not feel scratchy against the skin, while others note that it becomes softer after washing.
Will it suit my pattern, and which needles should I use?
Compare the yarn thickness and tension specified in your pattern with the yarn's specifications to check whether it is suitable. Knitters tend to choose needles close to the recommended size; the tension for this yarn is 28 stitches per 10 cm, and you can start with 3–3.5 mm circular needles.
Check your pattern for the amount of yarn needed for your size; make a tension square and wash it gently: friction in warm water can felt the wool. If your pattern calls for a different yarn thickness, compare it with other Schachenmayr yarns.
