Sandnes Garn - Duo
per 50 g skein · 126 yd
Spun with Merino wool & cotton, Duo is the best of both worlds. Versatile enough for garments that may be worn all year long, Merino wool gives garments structure & shape, while cotton delivers a light breathability.
The DK weight yarn feels wonderful next to skin & is perfectly soft for sweaters, cardigans, as well as baby clothes & accessories. The yarn is available in a lovely palette of soft, modern colorways.

Duo is a very comfortable year-round yarn. A great alternative for people who find wool itchy. The wool makes the yarn lighter and more elastic and insulates better than pure cotton. Cotton is not an itchy fiber. The blend of merino wool and cotton makes this a light and soft yarn that insulates well. A great alternative for people who find pure wool itchy.
