Lana Grossa Merino Soft – soft and easy-care merino blend knitting yarn

Lana Grossa Merino Soft is a versatile knitting yarn that combines the softness of merino wool with the durability of acrylic. The yarn is composed of 50% virgin merino wool and 50% acrylic, with 125 m per 50 g ball and a recommended needle size of 5–6 mm. It’s ideal for cosy sweaters, cardigans and accessories that are comfortable to wear and easy to care for. :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}

Why choose Lana Grossa Merino Soft?

Composition & specs

Merino Soft comes in 50 g balls with approx. 125 m of yarn. The recommended needle size is 5–6 mm, and the gauge is around 16 stitches x 22 rows = 10 x 10 cm. For a women’s sweater in size 38–40 you will need roughly 550 g (about 11 balls). This puts Lana Grossa Merino Soft in the light/medium weight range – thick enough for quick progress, but still with a nice drape. :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}

Soft merino blend for everyday knits

The merino content makes the yarn warm, soft and breathable, while the acrylic fibres add shape retention and strength. This type of yarn is perfect for:

• Everyday sweaters and cardigans with a full, cushy fabric
• Children’s and teens’ garments that must withstand regular washing
• Hats, scarves and cowls that feel soft against the skin
• Beginner-friendly projects on 5–6 mm needles
