Introducing "Tussock" (batch 02/23) - the epitome of quality and comfort in knitting. Crafted from 100% Fine New Zealand Merino Wool, this 50gm ball of yarn is a knitting enthusiast's dream. Here are the benefits of using our Tussock Shade of New Zealand Merino Wool:

1. Unmatched Softness: Merino wool is renowned for its exquisite softness, and our Forest yarn is no exception. It feels gentle and comfortable against your skin, making it ideal for projects that you'll wear close to your body.

2. Excellent Insulation: This Merino wool yarn provides exceptional insulation, keeping you warm in colder weather while remaining breathable. It's the perfect choice for cozy scarves, sweaters, and winter accessories.

3. Moisture Management: Merino wool is a natural moisture-wicking material. It can absorb moisture away from your skin, keeping you dry and comfortable, even during physical activities or in humid conditions.

4. Anti-Static Properties: Say goodbye to annoying static shocks. Merino wool has anti-static properties, ensuring that your garments won't cling uncomfortably to your body.

5. Itch-Free and Odor-Resistant: Unlike some traditional wools, Merino wool doesn't itch or cause discomfort. It's also naturally odor-resistant, so you can wear your creations with confidence.

6. Crease-Resistant: Merino wool is known for its ability to resist creasing. Your finished projects will maintain their shape and look great, even after wear.

7. Lightweight: Despite its warmth and insulation properties, Merino wool is surprisingly lightweight. This makes it suitable for a wide range of projects, including delicate baby garments.

8. Sustainable and Local: Our Merino wool is sourced and processed locally in New Zealand. It comes from the South Island, is scoured in Timaru, and processed in Christchurch, ensuring a sustainable and responsible supply chain.

9. Versatile Weight: With a weight of 50gm per ball, Tussock 100% Fine Merino Wool strikes a balance between being fine enough for delicate projects and substantial enough for larger items.

10. Easy Care: While it's recommended for gentle hand washing, caring for your Merino wool creations is relatively simple. The natural resilience of Merino wool ensures that your projects maintain their quality over time.

Experience the luxury of knitting with Tussock Merino Wool, knowing that your creations will be soft, durable, and eco-friendly. Whether you're a seasoned knitter or just starting, this yarn is a versatile choice for a wide range of knitting projects.
