This is a beautiful fingering, single-ply yarn with a smooth texture and a subtle sheen. The Merino base gives it a buttery softness. LITLG's gorgeous colorways are nuanced and complex. This is a great option for shawls and lightweight garments.
This hand-dyed yarn comes to us from Ireland. LITLG uses yarns from farms using ethical practices. They embrace slow living, care, and quality in everything they do and their gorgeous yarns reflect that in both quality and beauty.

What a joy Merino Singles is to knit with. It's soft and luxurious and creates a beautiful fabric. 100% Merino wool perfect for light weight garments and accessories. Adding this yarn to the shop means my "to knit" list just got a lot longer! |
What a gorgeous lightweight yarn this is! It creates a beautiful fabric whether knitted using smaller or bigger needles. It's a wonderful option for lightweight garments like shawls, tees, or tanks. The single ply gives it a liiiittle tiny bit of fuzziness in comparison to say... a high twist yarn. LITLG's colors are always works of art. The Merino Singles are no exception. They have such a knack at creating color combinations that are simply stunning. Knitting with this yarn is definitely a feast for the eyes! |
