Wool yarn: how to find your way around to knit well?

Faced with all these balls of colorful wool , you may have already wondered: which wool yarn should you choose? Fine, thick, soft, rustic... Wool comes in a multitude of textures and compositions. And every project deserves the perfect yarn!

🎯 Which yarn for which knitting?

The choice of wool yarn depends primarily on what you want to create. For a delicate shawl, a fine knitting yarn like mohair or silk is ideal. For a soft scarf, opt for merino wool or a thicker blend.

Wool yarns are also distinguished by their twist, elasticity, and finish once knitted. Don't hesitate to read the labels: they will tell you the composition, the yardage, the recommended needle size, and even the sample to test.

🌈 The different fibers: natural or synthetic?

Natural yarns and wools like merino, alpaca, or cashmere are soft and breathable. They're perfect for next-to-skin garments and projects. Conversely, synthetic yarns are often more durable, easy to care for, and very affordable.
