Holst Garn Supersoft is a classic non-superwash yarn in pure new wool.
Supersoft is a blend of 50% merino wool and 50% shetland wool, and it is perfect for both knitting and crochet. We love it for colourwork!
Host Garn is a Danish company run by Helle Holst in the town of Aabybro.
Supersoft can be used single or held double for different results:
-
Knit with one thread at needles 3-3.5 mm/US 2.5-4 (Approx. 25 stitches = 10 cm/4 inches).
-
Knit with two threads at needles 4-4.5mm/US 6-7 (Approx. 16 stitches = 10 cm/4 inches).
Note: Holst Garn Supersoft contains a bit of spinning oil and excess dye. The oil and excess dye will disappear at the first wash - and the yarn will bloom and become softer. You can use a washing machine on a cold delicate wool program.
