Duo is a perfect yarn for year-round wear. It provides a comfortable and non-itchy option for those sensitive to wool. The blend of merino wool and cotton creates a lightweight and elastic yarn that offers superior insulation. This is an excellent choice for individuals seeking a soft and warm yarn without the potential discomfort of pure wool.
Their Merino wool comes from non-mulesed sheep, sourced from South America, and the cotton comes from India.

Care Instructions
- Hand wash in tepid water using a mild soap.
- Do not agitate or twist.
- Shape and dry on a flat towel.
- For machine washing, we recommend that all wool garments be washed separately on a wool program, to ensure the gentlest treatment. Due to the unique absorbency of the merino wool, it is important to centrifuge hand-knitted garments well before drying them flat on a towel
- Never use a laundry bag when washing hand-knitted wool garments. This creates friction that can cause the garment to felt.
