Mini skein sets are perfect to mix and match with other colours or for stash building gifts. These sets of 5 mini skeins equals 100g total or one full sized hank of yarn.
This yarn is so versatile and can be used for any next to skin project (scarves, jumpers etc) as well as items where a little more durability is required such as socks and gloves.

- Approx. 5 x 80 meters per 20 g hank/skein
- Hand dyed with Australian made dyes

The fine Australian merino wool makes this yarn luxuriously soft and bouncy for next to skin comfort. A little nylon is added for extra durability.
The main factor determining the quality of Australian merino wool is its softness which depends upon the fineness of the fibres. The use of fine merino (19.5 microns) which is some of the finest commercially available results in a super soft yarn that feels gentle against the skin.
