Lana Grossa knitting yarn – Cool Wool Mélange Bordeaux mottled 1404

Cool Wool Mélange Bordeaux mottled 1404 knitting yarn is a beautifully fine merino yarn with a rich, softly blended Bordeaux colour effect. Made from 100% merino wool (merino extrafine), it feels pleasant and gentle in the hands while you work. This makes it a lovely choice for everyday knitting, whether you are making your first wearable project or looking for a dependable yarn for detailed patterns.

Lana Grossa knitting yarn is known for combining quality fibres with wearable, timeless colours. The mottled Bordeaux shade adds depth to simple stitches without taking attention away from your design. It is an easy colour to wear and works well for classic garments as well as modern accessories.

Features and benefits

Each 50 gram ball contains approximately 160 metres, giving you a generous length for a fine yarn. Cool Wool Mélange Bordeaux mottled 1404 is designed for knitting needles in sizes 3 to 3.5 mm. The recommended tension is 24 stitches and 34 rows over 10 x 10 cm, which helps you create neat, balanced fabric with good stitch definition.

Because this is a fine merino wool, cables, ribbing, lace details and simple stocking stitch can all look clear and polished. The finished fabric has a comfortable, lightweight feel that is suitable for layering. It is a practical choice when you want a project that feels refined without being overly bulky. With around eight balls, you have the suggested amount for a size 38–40 garment.

This Lana Grossa yarn offers great value for money: its useful metreage, versatile needle range and classic merino composition make it suitable for many projects throughout the year.

Tips for knitting and care

Before starting a larger project, knit a small tension swatch using your chosen needles. This is especially important for garments, as a small difference in stitch count can affect the final size. The Bordeaux mottled shade is easy to combine with neutrals such as cream, grey, navy and black, or with other complementary tones from the Lana Grossa range. For a subtle contrast, use a plain yarn for borders, stripes or small colourwork details.

For safe care, always check and follow the instructions on the yarn label before washing or drying your finished item. A gentle approach and careful handling will help your merino knitwear stay looking its best.
