Duo is a very comfortable year-round yarn. A great alternative for people who find wool itchy. The wool makes the yarn lighter and more elastic and insulates better than pure cotton. Cotton is not an itchy fiber. The blend of merino wool and cotton makes this a light and soft yarn that insulates well. A great alternative for people who find pure wool itchy.
Our supplier has guaranteed that the wool we buy does not come from sheep that have been subjected to mulesing.Read more about our ethics and sustainability goals of Sandnes Garn here.
For machine washing, we recommend that all wool garments be washed separately on a wool program, to ensure the gentlest treatment. Due to the unique absorbency of the merino wool, it is important to centrifuge hand-knitted garments well before drying them on a flat surface, preferably on top of a towel. Never use a laundry bag when washing hand-knitted wool garments. This creates friction that can cause the garment to felt.

Let customers speak for us
from 699 reviewsGreat yarn and excellent service. I especially liked that she was able to wind them for me, saving me lots of time so I could get creating right away.
Was at a wonderful knitting retreat put on by this shop and a few of that ladies were using this swivel cord on their needles…..of course I had to try it, so clever and useful……I promptly bought it. Thanks
Adorable, easy to locate when tossed in my bag, and they work really well
My daughter was really excited to receive this. She is going to spread out the 12 days into 24 by opening one every other day!
Just finished my table runner, used it for my warping in three lovely colors. Welf was a snobby cream, very pleased.
Beautiful color combination and the feeling of the yarn while knitting with it!

Absolutely love this product! Estelle Chunky is an amazing new addition to the shop. I'll definitely be getting more to make everyone socks for christmas!
Making two by two hat using a twisted rib and this yarn is nice to work with, my stitch definition is high and even. I am using chocolate brown tweed and it looks great.
