Description
Product information "Schachenmayr Merino Extrafine 85 – 00201 white"
Schachenmayr Merino Extrafine 85 yarn is merino wool that glides over the needles and feels springy in the knitted fabric. Its springiness helps cables and stranded colourwork stand out. It is used to knit jumpers and hats.
Is it soft to the touch?
Many knitters describe the yarn as soft to the touch; some find it even softer after washing.
Will it suit my pattern, and which needles should I use?
Compare the yarn thickness, tension and needle size in your pattern with the specifications, then make a tension square on 4.5–5.5 mm circular needles. For some projects, finer needles are used for texture; use the tension of your square as your guide.
Calculate the number of balls using the pattern for your project: the amount needed depends on the style and size of the finished piece. Before starting, make a tension square and wash it. Wash gently: friction in warm water can felt the wool. If your pattern calls for a different thickness, compare it with other Schachenmayr yarns.
