Lana Grossa knitting yarn – Cool Wool Mélange Indian red mottled 1432

Cool Wool Mélange Indian red mottled 1432 knitting yarn is a beautifully soft merino yarn with a warm, lively red colour and a gently mottled look. It is pleasant to hold while knitting and creates fabric that feels comfortable against the skin. Made from 100% merino wool, including merino extrafine fibres, this yarn is a lovely choice for anyone who enjoys refined everyday projects, from confident beginners to experienced knitters.

This Lana Grossa knitting yarn comes in 50 gram balls with a generous length of 160 metres. Its fine, versatile weight works with 3 to 3.5 mm knitting needles, making it suitable for detailed patterns as well as simple, relaxing stockinette stitch. The recommended tension is 24 stitches and 34 rows over 10 x 10 cm, so it is a good idea to make a small test square before starting a garment.

Features and benefits

The soft merino fibres give your finished project a smooth, comfortable feel without making it bulky. Cool Wool Mélange Indian red mottled 1432 has clear stitch definition, meaning cables, ribbing, textured stitches and lace details can all stand out neatly. Even a simple knitted sweater can look polished when the stitches are even and visible.

The mottled Indian red shade adds depth to your work, helping a plain pattern feel more interesting without needing complicated colour changes. Lana Grossa is a trusted brand for knitters who appreciate quality materials and enjoyable results, while still looking for great value for money in a versatile knitting yarn.

For a ladies’ size 38–40 sweater, allow approximately 8 balls. The final amount can vary depending on the pattern, stitch choice, sleeve length and fit, so check your chosen pattern before ordering.

Useful knitting and care tips

Always knit a swatch before beginning a larger project. This helps you check whether your tension matches the pattern and prevents surprises with the finished size. The Indian red mottled colour looks lovely on its own, but can also be combined with neutral shades such as cream, grey, navy or charcoal for stripes, borders or colour-block details. When combining yarns, choose yarns with a similar weight and make a test swatch first.

For safe care, follow the instructions on the yarn label and your pattern. Merino wool benefits from gentle handling; avoid harsh washing methods, strong detergents and excessive heat. Dry knitted items flat where possible to help them keep their shape.
