Our bases are classified according to the wool thickness and recommended needles, but it is always convenient to make a previous sample and adapt it to the way you knit.
The Merino Superwash models allow washing machine, in specific wool programs, although we highly recommend washing them by hand, without stirring, in cold water and drying flat.
All our wool comes from Mulesing free farms.
