Ballerina is a very light, soft pink with subtle warm undertones.
It is lighter, a bit warmer and less saturated than Cherry Blossom, with a pale, gently pastel appearance.

Hue: Neutral-warm
Color Season: Light Summer
Despite its slightly warm-leaning tone, Ballerina is best placed in the Summer season due to its low chroma and saturation. The hue sits at the warmest edge of what Summer can tolerate.

Knitting for Olive Heavy Merino consists of 100% Merino wool. The yarn has a beautiful and natural structure. It is a soft and delicious yarn, slightly less fine than our thin Merino.

Our merino wool comes from sheep bred in New Zealand, where mulesing is not practiced. The wool can be traced directly back to the farm it comes from. In this way, we know exactly which farm, farmers, and sheep made our wool.

Merino wool has many excellent properties. It is temperature-regulating. That is, the wool keeps our bodies warm in cold weather, and releases heat in warm weather, keeping our skin cool. At the same time, wool, like silk, can carry moisture away from the skin, and can absorb 30% of its weight without feeling wet.

Wool is also dirt-repellent and requires minimal care.

The yarn is STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX® certificeret

The yarn is produced in Italy. Our spinning mill follows ethical, technical and environmental standards, creating yarns free from harmful chemicals.

Note! Since computer monitors display colors differently, we cannot guarantee that the color of the yarn on your computer monitor accurately captures the true colors of the product.
