Cashwool NM2/30 1500m/100g (1640yds/3.5oz) – 100% Merino Wool

Spun by the legendary Italian mill Zegna Baruffa, Cashwool is the gold standard of extra-fine merino yarns, often described as “merino that feels like cashmere.” With its velvety hand, elegant twist, and luxurious drape, Cashwool is ideal for multi-strand projects requiring softness, precision, and timeless appeal. Lightweight and smooth, it lends itself equally well to hand knitting, machine work, and fine weaving.
