If you’re already a fan of blended yarns made from wool and cotton, you’re sure to love this extra soft quality.
If you haven’t tried blended yarns yet, what are you waiting for? This incredible yarn is made from 50% pure, new wool and 50% top-quality cotton.
You have lots of beautiful, natural, and subtle shades. Please note that some of the yarns have a mottled effect, while other colors are completely solid (look at the photos).
Have fun! The yarn is superwash-treated.
NB! The yarn is machine washable at 30ºC (86ºF), but do NOT tumble dry as it says on the labels. Follow the washing instructions here on the website.

Cotton Merino and Cotton Merino Classic is my go-to yarn now for anything I wear, for baby items and for blankets/afghans.
I cannot wear synthetic fibres and the cotton/merino mixture feels so soft AND warm and i love the texture feeding through my fingers and the cuddly squidgy-ness of the work as it builds.
I recently knitted a jumper with Mayflower Cotton Merino Classic (4 weight) and a contrast of combining Hobbii Rainbow Cotton (2 weight) and Kremke In The Mood Merino (2 weight). I was SO happy with the results !!
It is also a very affordable yarn for large projects.
Thanks Hobbii :-)

I love the blend of merino and cotton - It's such a logical idea ! The merino gives the elasticity that the cotton lacks and softens the cotton while working with it . While the cotton is the fiber I feel dominated the overall yarn , making it perfect for summer , or warmer weather garments -I want to get some more for weaving a babies blanket . Great drape and nice color interest - definitely recommend!

Looking for a yarn that is soft and easy to work with? Look no further This is the yarn for you. You know how some cotton yarns can rub a blister or burn as it travels over your finger whilst crocheting? Not this yarn. It is so soft and the denim look to it gives projects a new look. You’ve got to get this yarn!

First time buying this yarn and it won’t be my last time. I’m making knitted coveralls for my 9th grandchild due in June. I’m sure the clothing piece will be passed down for generations to come.
I was a little disappointed at how small the ball of yarn was… so I’m glad I purchased more!

Really soft, yet durable. I used it with a strand of hobbii baby wool to make a hat. I think it will be very warm now but also quite sturdy. With the wool incorporated in a 1x1 rib it has very nice definition and spring. Seems like the best of both worlds (cotton/wool).
