Features and benefits

This Lana Grossa knitting yarn comes in 50 g balls with a generous length of 160 metres. It is designed for needle sizes 3 to 3.5 mm, making it suitable for many classic knitting projects. The recommended tension is 24 stitches and 34 rows over 10 x 10 cm, helping you plan garments with confidence.

The fine merino wool gives your knitting neat stitch definition, so ribbing, cables, lace details and simple stocking stitch can all look crisp and attractive. The yarn also creates a light, comfortable fabric with a soft feel against the skin. Its balanced thickness makes it easy to use for garments that are warm without feeling overly bulky. For a women’s size 38–40 sweater, approximately 8 balls are required.

Tips for knitting and care

Before starting a larger project, knit a small tension swatch using your chosen needles. This simple step helps you check whether your stitches match the stated gauge and can prevent sizing surprises later. Olive green melange works especially well with cream, beige, grey, brown and other earthy shades. It can also be combined with a contrasting yarn for stripes, borders or colourwork, provided you test the fabric first.

For best results, follow the care instructions on the yarn label. In general, handle merino wool gently, avoid harsh treatment and allow knitted items to dry flat so they can keep their shape. A little careful care will help your handmade pieces stay comfortable and beautiful for longer.
