Merino is the softest wool yarn available, and is excellent at regulating body temperature, especially when worn against the skin. Merino sheep need to be shorn at least once a year because their wool does not stop growing.
The nylon element adds durability to the yarn, making it ideal for socks.
Gold stellina is a soft polyester/nylon thread spun into the yarn, which adds a subtle golden sparkle to your finished items.
