A note about MOUNTAIN MERINO® WOOL Our Mountain Merino® is next-to-skin soft. Our signature Mountain Merino® wool fibers are carefully selected from premium USA ranches ensuring quality and softness. All of the wool we use meets strict guidelines for the fine-micron (diameter) count which provides that next-to-skin softness and durability. We blend premium Merino, Rambouillet, Targhee and Cormo wool to create our Mountain Merino® Wool.

Please remember that every effort is taken to represent the true colors of the yarn and that monitor settings will vary.  Note: The natural gray Cody uses Natural Black Wool and this wool is becoming increasingly hard to source, this is why the price is higher for the natural gray yarn.
