By selecting high-grade Merino wool (20.5 microns), we have been able to produce a machine-washable yarn that is super soft—definitely worthy of being worn against a baby's skin. Just the ticket for children's clothes, afghans, charity knitting, and gift knitting. No need to worry about the care your knitting will receive since this yarn can be machine-washed and will come out even softer than before!
Swish Worsted is a medium-weight yarn that will help you outfit the whole family in record time. Even those with sensitive skin will love the feel of baby-soft Merino, making this perfect for cuddly and warm sweaters and next-to-skin accessories like cowls and scarves.
