NSW Merino DK 100g Tambourine Man

NSW Merino DK is our first merino wool that hasn’t been superwash-treated, but otherwise it’s the same Karoo merino as our other bases. It behaves the way untreated wool does: bouncier, better stitch definition, a rustic feel, and more grip. It’s great for colourwork and anything you plan to steek. Use it for any project you’d normally make in our Merino DK — just hand-wash your finished piece, because it felts REALLY easily.

Since our colours are hand dyed in small batches there is variation between batches, and even within a batch. We have a process and ingredients for each colour recipe, but can’t control how the colours “land” each time. If you’re looking for a sweater quantity please let us know and we will dye up a batch specially for you.

Good to Know
This yarn weighs slightly less than our standard Merino DK, but it’s loftier, so appears thicker. Non-superwash wool absorbs dye a little differently from superwash yarns, so expect colours that are slightly muted compared to the rest of our range. For best colour results we recommend working with two different balls/skeins and alternating every round/every second row.

Tips for Felting
Machine wash intentionally to felt projects like slippers, bags, or coasters. We’re big fans of the Sailor Slippers if you’re looking for a place to start. Wash your knitted piece in the washing machine on a standard length, 30°C cycle. We recommend knitting a swatch and measuring it before and after so you can calculate the shrinkage rate for your specific machine and cycle.
