Our SRS Merino is single-origin sourced from Mount Bodangora Merino, a six-generation merino stud who is committed to an ethical and sustainable approach to animal welfare.
This comes in fingering (4ply) sport (5 ply) and DK (8 ply) and is luxuriously soft and a pleasure to knit and crochet. Per 100-gram skein:
Our DK is 210 metres or 229 yards
Our Sport is 270 metres or 295 yards
Our Merino single spun Finger weight 4 ply is 410 meters or 448 Yards
Mount Bodangora is part of the ‘SustainaWOOL’ integrity scheme, an accreditation program run by Italian woollen mills to ensure a high standard of care for the sheep and their environment. Mount Bodangora run a mob of sheep especially for Great Southern Yarn to supply us a longer length fleece of around 100mm or four inches to create the best of yarns.
Our Merino is named after Elizabeth Macarthur an extraordinary pioneer of the Australian wool industry of the early 1800’s.
