DROPS Baby Merino is spun from extra fine merino wool fibers from free-range animals in South America. A super soft and itch-free wool yarn, it is perfectly suited for delicate baby skin. The yarn is also superwash treated which makes it machine washable and ideal for daily use.
DROPS Baby Merino is spun from multiple thin strands, which gives the yarn extra elasticity. Is this special construction that makes it extra important to treat the garment right: make sure that you knit with the correct tension and rather use a tight tension than loose. Don't wash your garment too warm, never leave it to soak and let the garment dry flat.
The yarn is cable spun, which means the stitches will be clearly defined, and the result achieved will be neat and even.
Made in EU

I love this yarn. I crocheted a baby dress and cap out of the rose color. The picture on this site is pretty accurate color-wise. If anything the yarn may be a speck darker/richer in person. The yarn is incredibly soft while also having a wonderful bouncy feel. I had no problem with splitting, and when I had to frog several rows, it showed no fraying or splitting. I’ve knit with Drops Merino Extra Fine, but this crochet project is my first with the baby merino. I highly recommend it.
