DROPS BIG MERINO

DROPS Big Merino – Soft, Elastic, and Perfectly Warm

DROPS Big Merino combines softness, structure, and resilience in one beautiful 100% merino wool yarn. Known for its volume, elasticity, and even stitch definition, this yarn is ideal for textured knits, cables, and classic garments that hold their shape beautifully.

Spun from multiple fine strands, Big Merino offers extra elasticity, giving every project a smooth, professional finish. Its special construction means it’s important to use the correct tension — tighter rather than loose — to maintain structure and durability.

This yarn is superwash treated, making it machine washable and perfect for everyday use. Whether you’re knitting cozy sweaters, scarves, or baby garments, DROPS Big Merino delivers consistent results, warmth, and comfort.

Certified by OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 (Class I), it’s completely free from harmful substances and safe for even the most sensitive skin — including babies.
