Yarn from "Pekhorka" "Merino"
The modern yarn market offers customers a large assortment. Despite this, the products of only a few manufacturers are in relatively high demand among needlewomen. One of these domestic manufacturers is Pekhorka. Among its main products is a yarn called "Merino". About why it is universal, as well as what gives it lightness and much more, read the article.
Peculiarities
The yarn "Merino", which is produced by the firm "Pekhorka", is distinguished by its lightness, fluffiness and beautiful appearance. The yarn consists of equal parts merino wool and acrylic. Merino is the name of a breed of sheep, whose wool hairs are distinguished by their fineness and strength. Merino wool products are soft, keep warm well and are worn for a long time.
It is believed that merino products are suitable for those who have joint diseases and are prone to colds. Acrylic is a chemically synthesized fiber made from gas. It increases wear resistance.
One of the main advantages of this yarn is its hypoallergenicity. Thanks to the acrylic content, it also becomes soft. According to the manufacturer, the thread is equally well suited for both hand knitting and machine knitting. The product is distinguished by its beautiful shine and the fact that it practically does not prick (thanks to acrylic).
Hanks are produced in 200 m each and 100 g in weight. The yarn is more suitable for creating children's clothes. But in general, any piece of clothing can be knitted from it. The manufacturer recommends crocheting number 4. The average price of a skein is 130-140 rubles excluding delivery.
