LOVIS

ball band: "Worsted" · hand wash

100% wool

Worsted

LOVIS is always good for an exciting surprise. Each ball is unique. Then there is the unbelievably soft handle, because of the extrafine 19.5 micron merino. Mulesing-free, of course. And last, but not least, the lax twist which gives this wick yarn volume and a fleecy-soft effect.

Weight group is derived from measured gauge, not the brand's label — that is why a yarn labelled "aran / worsted" can sit in our Aran group while another brand's "worsted" lands in DK. Library: 1406 yarns · 42 brands · 135 without gauge · 276/1408 gauge rows missing row count.
