Helpful knitting and care tips

Before starting a larger project, make a small tension swatch using the needles you plan to use. This is the easiest way to check whether your stitches match the stated gauge and helps you calculate the right number of balls. The loden green mottled shade works beautifully on its own, but it can also be combined with other calm, natural colours for stripes, borders or colour-block details. When mixing yarns, choose yarns with a similar weight and always test them together first.

For the best long-term care, follow the instructions on the yarn label and the recommendations in your chosen pattern. Gentle handling, careful washing and drying the item in a supported shape can help preserve the feel and appearance of merino wool. Taking a little care during and after knitting helps your finished piece stay enjoyable for longer.
