Cool Wool Dots Olive green 007

Lana Grossa knitting yarn – Cool Wool Dots Olive green 007

Cool Wool Dots Olive green 007 knitting yarn is a lovely choice for anyone who enjoys smooth, comfortable knitting with a soft and refined result. This yarn feels pleasant in the hands and glides nicely on needles, making it suitable for both beginners and more experienced makers. The olive green shade gives your project a calm, natural look, while the dotted effect adds a little extra character without making the yarn difficult to use.

This Lana Grossa yarn is made from 80% merino wool (merino extrafine), 13% viscose, and 7% polyamide. That blend gives you softness from the merino, a subtle touch of liveliness from the viscose, and added durability from the polyamide. Each ball contains 50 grams and offers a generous 155 metres, so you get good running length for the price. For a women’s size 38–40 sweater, you will need around 8 balls. The recommended needle size is 3 to 3.5 mm, and the stated tension is 24 stitches and 34 rows over 10 x 10 cm.

Features & benefits

One of the nicest things about this knitting yarn is its clear stitch definition. In simple terms, that means your stitches are easy to see, which is very helpful if you are still learning or if you want textured patterns to stand out. Stockinette stitch looks neat, ribbing stays tidy, and simple lace or small cables can show up beautifully as well.

The finished fabric has a soft, lightweight feel with a comfortable drape. It is warm without feeling too heavy, which makes it a great option for garments and accessories you will actually enjoy wearing. Because of the merino content, projects feel gentle against the skin, so this yarn is a nice choice for people who prefer softer wool. Lana Grossa is a brand known for quality and thoughtful yarn blends, and this yarn offers great value for money when you want softness, meterage, and a polished look in one ball.

Project ideas

• A lightweight sweater for everyday wear
• A soft cardigan with neat ribbed edges
• A hat or beanie with crisp stitch detail
• A scarf or cowl in simple stockinette or rib
• A shawl with a gentle drape
• Baby knitting projects such as a soft cardigan or blanket

Because this yarn is fine and even, it works well for both simple and slightly more detailed patterns. If you like timeless projects that are easy to match with the rest of your wardrobe, the olive green tone is a very practical color choice.

Tips & care

Before starting your full project, it is always smart to make a swatch. This helps you check whether you are getting close to the suggested gauge of 24 stitches and 34 rows on 10 x 10 cm, and it also lets you see how the fabric feels on your chosen needles. If you want a slightly firmer fabric, choose 3 mm needles; if you prefer a little more softness and flow, try 3.5 mm.

When choosing colors, olive green is easy to wear and combines well with neutrals, cream tones, brown, grey, and deeper green shades. If you enjoy mixing materials, you can combine this yarn with another yarn for details such as stripes, cuffs, or borders, but always swatch first to see if the textures work well together.

For care, always follow the yarn band instructions. In general, wool blends deserve gentle handling: avoid high heat, use a wool-friendly detergent if needed, and let your finished item dry flat to help it keep its shape. A little extra care helps your handmade project stay beautiful for longer.

Whether you are planning a first garment or looking for a reliable yarn from a trusted brand, Cool Wool Dots Olive green 007 is an inviting option. Pick your favorite shade and start your next knitting project with the soft quality of Lana Grossa.
