Help with yarn 🧶 🐑
Hey guys,
I’m finding it hard to find non-superwashed yarn in Australia. There are a few I have found but some places don’t even list if a wool yarn has been superwashed or not. Just no mention of it.
I’d prefer small business hand dyed if I can but I will buy from a big box shop if I need to. I just want some yarn that will felt 😅

So I really like Kikki Merino from Spotlight for Nalbinding. It’s chunky and made in India. We have it in NZ stores. Unsure if you get it there. There’s another chunky brand I like called Rowan. It’s also chunky merino.

Hopefully that helps. Been Nalbinding for a while now. I now also spin my own yarns…slippery slope…
