At DILLING we offer natural fibre knitting yarns for UK knitters. Our yarns include merino wool, lambswool and other natural fibre options for knitting projects across all skill levels, from simple beginner pieces to more complex garments and accessories in quality natural fibres.
Knitting yarns in natural fibres such as wool, merino and lambswool provide knitters with materials that are well-suited to handmade garments and accessories. Natural fibre yarns knit up into warm, breathable finished pieces that have a satisfying weight and drape compared to synthetic alternatives. For UK knitters working on sweaters, scarves, hats and baby garments, a quality natural fibre yarn provides the material foundation for a finished piece that is comfortable to wear and durable in everyday use. At DILLING, our natural fibre yarns are selected for quality and suitability for the handmade garments that UK knitters make most frequently.
Merino wool yarn is one of the most popular natural fibre options for UK knitters, providing a fine, soft wool that knits up into garments and accessories that are comfortable against the skin. Merino yarn produces finished pieces with a smooth, soft drape that makes it particularly suited to garments worn next to the skin such as base layers, socks and baby clothing. At DILLING, our merino wool yarns are available in weights suited to a range of knitting projects, providing UK knitters with a quality natural fibre option for their next merino project from simple accessories to more complex garments.
For beginner knitters, choosing the right yarn is an important part of starting a successful first project. Natural fibre yarns in medium weights such as DK and aran are well-suited to beginner knitting projects because their size makes stitches easy to see and work with, and natural fibre yarns have a slight elasticity that makes them forgiving for knitters still developing consistent tension. At DILLING, our range of natural fibre knitting yarns includes options suited to beginner knitters alongside more advanced natural fibre options, with guidance on selecting the right weight and fibre for different project types.
Baby knitting is one of the most popular knitting categories in the UK, with knitters producing hats, blankets, bootees and small garments for babies in their family and social circle. For baby knitting, a soft natural fibre yarn that is gentle against sensitive baby skin is an important consideration. At DILLING, our natural fibre yarns include options suited to baby knitting, providing soft, baby-friendly natural fibre materials for the hats, blankets and small garments that are among the most popular baby knitting projects for UK knitters.
Natural fibre yarns should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade natural dye colours over time. Keep yarn in its original band or in a sealed bag to protect it from dust and moths. Unused yarn is best stored away from heat and moisture, which can affect the condition of natural fibres. When working with natural fibre yarn, keep hands clean and dry to avoid transferring oils or moisture to the yarn during knitting. Properly stored natural fibre yarn will remain in good condition for use in future projects.
