Discover the soft versatility of Knitting for Olive Cotton Merino

Knitting for Olive Cotton Merino is a beautiful, lightweight yarn that brings together the best qualities of cotton and merino wool. Its blend of 70% OCS-certified cotton and 30% RWS-certified, non-mulesed merino wool creates a soft, breathable base with added bounce and elasticity. According to Knitting for Olive, this makes Cotton Merino a lovely predominantly cotton yarn that can be used all year round and is perfect for everyday garments. With 250 metres per 50 grams, a recommended needle size of 3 mm, and a gauge of 28 stitches and 38 rows over 10 cm, it is a refined choice for timeless and comfortable knitting projects.

Why choose Knitting for Olive Cotton Merino?

• Soft and lightweight – Knitting for Olive describes Cotton Merino as a soft and light blend, making it pleasant to wear and lovely to knit with.
  
  
• Breathable with added bounce – The cotton gives the yarn an airy and comfortable feel, while the merino wool adds elasticity and resilience. That makes it more springy and forgiving than pure cotton alone.
  
  
• Well suited to everyday wear – Knitting for Olive explicitly describes Cotton Merino as perfect for everyday garments and suitable for year-round use. That makes it a lovely choice for sweaters, cardigans, baby knits, and other comfortable essentials. Those project examples are a careful usage inference based on the official description, yarn type, and softness.
  
  
• Responsibly produced – The cotton is OCS-certified, the merino wool is RWS-certified and from non-mulesed sheep, and Knitting for Olive also states that the yarn is OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified.
