Description
If you love our Friends Extra Fine Merino, youâll also love our Friends Extra Fine Merino XL! The same softness and quality, just in a thicker version.
The yarn is a 100% extra fine merino wool and is perfect for crafters who donât want to compromise on comfort and warmth. Merino is an incredible thermoregulating fiber that doesnât itch, making it perfect for childrenâs clothes and a good fit for people with sensitive skin.
The wool in Friends Extra Fine Merino XL comes from South America, making it mulesing-free. The yarn is also superwash treated, letting you wash it in the washing machine at 40°C/104°F, which makes it perfect for everyday items.
This XL-version is thicker than the original and contains approx. 110 meters (120.3 yds) of material. Itâs typically knitted on a 4mm knitting needle or a 5mm crochet hook, making it perfect for projects where you want a little extra fullness and texture. Use it by itself, with several strands held together, or combine it with a mohair strand for a fluffy look!
Friends Extra Fine Merino XL is incredibly versatile and great for all kinds of projects, from sweaters and cardigans to beanies, scarves, gloves, and other cozy projects for children and adults.
Want your next project to be a little chunkier but still feel as soft as a cloud? Then Friends Extra Fine Merino XL is the perfect choice.
The yarn is OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certified (no. 2276-367). Find more information about the certification at https://www.oeko-tex.com/en/
Pro tip: Merino fibers are very elastic and are easily stretched, especially in larger projects when theyâre weighed down by water. This is normal for merino wool. We recommend that you donât put your clothes in the washing machine on a spin cycle and instead lift the clothes gently out of your washing machine while ensuring that all parts of the garment are supported, so that no part of it hangs. Now, press the water out of your clothes by hand without twisting. If you plan on washing your project by hand, donât let it soak. We also recommend drying our Friends Extra Fine Merino XL flat and making sure that no part of the garment hangs loose to ensure that the garment keeps its shape.
About the Friends family
The colors of the yarns included in the Friends family are literally friends!
This means the color numbers correspond to the same color across the different Friends yarns. If you order the same color number from two different Friends yarns, they will match. Please note that there can be slight differences in the shades from fiber to fiber.
Have fun combining and matching them in all your projects.
