Introducing 'The Ultimate Set'... one gigantic rainbow of mill waste merino yarn beautifully presented in one of our iconic vintage style 'stitched' gift boxes - a sweet gift for any mender.
 
80 different shades and a massive 800 metres of yarn from bright tones to neutrals...you'll have every single shade from our mill waste merino yarn collection at your fingertips making invisible repairs a breeze and visible mending a dream.
 
This high-quality mill waste yarn is perfect for general repairs, invisible darning, colourful visible mending or even a spot of knitwear embroidery.
 
2-ply yarn which can be doubled or tripled up if you require a thicker yarn for your mending project.
 
Spun and dyed right here in the U.K using 100 % merino wool - it's actually leftover surplus yarn from the textile production process and without being rescued it's likely it would end being wasted and sent to landfill.
 
It contains no added synthetic fibres unlike most darning wool or mending yarns, which are often a mix of wool and polyester/nylon which makes it hard-wearing, but sadly it releases micro-plastics in the wash and doesn't biodegrade. We prefer to source pure yarn which helps to reduce our impact on the planet!
 
The yarn is presented on a Ministry of Mending card for easy storage.
 
Each card contains approximately 10 m (33 ft) of yarn.
