daruma genmou

Twisted loosely, GENMOU is a 3-ply 100% merino wool yarn with one ply of untwisted, carded wool while the other two plies are thin, tightly-spun threads that hold the wool together. This unique construction produces an airy and extremely light yarn, while at the same time making it wavy resulting in a very smooth knit fabric. It is DK weight, warm, and great for wraps, garments, and accessories. GENMOU is available in a palette that mixes bright, poppy shades and soft, calm neutrals.  Fiber: 100 merino wool Gauge: dk (3), 4.75-5.25 sts/inch Needle: US 5-7 (3.75-4.5mm) Hook: US G-7 (4.0-4.5mm) Weight: 50g (1.76oz) Yardage: 165 Care: hand wash cold, dry flat
