🧵 The yarn
Lana Merino Plus Stampe Mondial is a merino wool blend yarn with a printed variegated effect, designed for anyone looking for a versatile, soft and easy-care product. Its composition of 52% superwash virgin merino wool and 48% acrylic microfiber provides natural warmth, long-lasting durability and the convenience of machine washing without the risk of felting.
Each 100g ball contains approximately 125 metres of evenly plied 4-ply worsted yarn, ideal for knitting with 5.5–6.5mm needles or crocheting with a hook of the same size. The double dyeing process, using dyes specific to each fibre, creates rich, unique shades, making every project original and never repetitive.
🧬 Technical composition: why it works
52% superwash virgin merino wool is the main fibre in this yarn. The superwash treatment removes the wool's natural scales that cause felting, allowing machine washing at 30°C without distortion. Merino is soft against the skin, naturally temperature-regulating and breathable, making it ideal even for those with sensitive skin or for garments worn for long periods.
The 48% acrylic microfiber PC helps increase wear resistance, reduce the overall weight of the finished garment and maintain its shape over time. This synthetic fibre dries quickly, resists distortion after repeated washing and preserves the vibrancy of the printed colours. The balance between the two fibres makes this yarn perfect for fall-winter sweaters and cardigans made to last season after season.
📦 Ball size and yield
Each ball weighs 100g and contains approximately 125 metres of yarn. On average, you will need 5–6 balls to make a women's size 38 sweater, and 7–8 balls for a men's size 44 sweater. A child's size 10-year sweater requires 4–5 balls. These estimates are based on a 10x10cm swatch knitted with 18 stitches and 20 rows.
For larger projects such as blankets or shawls, always allow for one extra ball. Buy all the balls you need at the same time to ensure they come from the same dye lot: printed shades may vary slightly between different lots, which is normal for multicoloured yarns.
🧶 Recommended knitting and crochet
Recommended needle size: 5.5–6.5mm. This size is ideal for creating a soft yet structured fabric, perfect for garments that need to hold their shape without feeling stiff. With 5.5mm needles, you get a denser, more defined fabric, ideal for cardigans and jackets. With 6.5mm needles, the fabric is softer and drapes more, perfect for shawls and chunky scarves.
This yarn is well suited to bags, amigurumi toys and decorative accessories when crocheted with a 5.5–6.5mm hook. The evenly plied 4-ply construction glides easily over both needles and crochet hooks, making it suitable even for those who are new to wool blends. The recommended gauge is 18 stitches x 20 rows for a 10x10cm square.
✨ Why choose Lana Merino Plus Stampe Mondial
This yarn solves the main drawback of pure merino wool: difficult care. Many 100% merino yarns must be hand washed and dried flat, limiting their everyday practicality. Thanks to its superwash treatment and acrylic content, Merino Plus Stampe can be machine washed at 30°C without losing its shape or softness, making it ideal for everyday garments such as sweaters, cardigans and children's accessories.
The printed variegated effect, created through double dyeing, produces natural, unique colour transitions, eliminating the need to change balls to achieve colour variations. Every finished garment has a handcrafted, one-of-a-kind look, perfect for anyone selling handmade creations or looking for an original result without complex techniques.
🎨 What you can make
This yarn is perfect for fall-winter sweaters and cardigans that need to be warm without being too heavy. It's also ideal for scarves, shawls and beanies with a variegated effect and no need to change colours. Great for structured jackets and outerwear, thanks to the shape retention provided by the acrylic. It's also widely used for colourful amigurumi toys and handmade accessories.
👩🎨 Who it's suitable for
This yarn is suitable for beginners and experienced crafters alike. Its evenly plied 4-ply construction glides easily over needles and crochet hooks without breaking or tangling, making it easy to work with even if you have little experience. The 5.5–6.5mm needle sizes are mid-range, making stitches easy to see and mistakes easy to correct.
Typical buyers include hobbyists looking for practical, washable yarn for everyday garments, craftswomen who sell handmade creations and want original colour effects without complex techniques, and people making clothes for children that need frequent machine washing without losing their shape or colour.

📌 Important note
The length of 125 metres per 100g ball is approximate and may vary slightly between production batches. The printed variegated effect is achieved through double dyeing and may result in variations in the colour intensity and distribution between balls from the same batch: this is normal and makes every garment unique. For projects requiring multiple balls, purchase all the balls you need at the same time to ensure the greatest possible consistency. Always keep the batch label for any future purchases.
