Knitting for Olive Heavy Merino
Knitting for Olive Heavy Merino is a beautifully soft, smooth merino yarn designed for garments you’ll reach for again and again. Spun from 100% mulesing-free merino wool, this yarn has a clean, even stitch definition that makes it a dream for sweaters, cardigans, hats, and accessories where you want your stitches to really shine.
Heavy Merino has a balanced feel—cozy without being bulky—and works equally well for simple stockinette, textured patterns, and classic cables. The fibers are sourced with care and spun to create a yarn that’s gentle on the skin, making it a great choice for everyday wear.
As with all Knitting for Olive yarns, the color palette is thoughtfully curated, offering timeless neutrals alongside soft, modern shades that mix and layer beautifully.
