🧵 The yarn
CAMILLA Bertagna Filati Wool is a yarn made from 100% pure virgin merino wool, designed for those seeking the utmost gentleness on a baby's skin. Produced by Silke under the Bertagna Filati brand, this skein combines exceptional softness, superior workability, and certified safety. Merino fiber is naturally breathable, thermoregulating, and hypoallergenic, making it perfect for garments in direct contact with the sensitive skin of little ones.
Each 50-gram skein offers 175 meters of yarn, ideal for creating complete layettes, blankets, booties, and accessories with 3-3.5 mm needles or a 3-4 mm crochet hook. The special cordonnet twist ensures a crisp stitch, reduces pilling, and makes the yarn glide smoothly through the fingers, perfect for both beginners and structured projects.
🧬 Technical composition: why it works
Virgin merino wool is a natural fiber of the highest quality, obtained from the shearing of merino sheep without undergoing harsh chemical treatments. Unlike traditional wools, merino fibers are extremely fine (approximately 19-22 microns in diameter), making them incredibly soft and free from the "prickly" feel typical of coarser wools. This characteristic is essential for baby garments, where the skin is extremely delicate and sensitive.
The 100% purity guarantees natural breathability, the ability to regulate body temperature, and moisture absorption without leaving a damp feeling. Merino wool is also naturally antibacterial and biodegradable, a sustainable choice for those seeking eco-friendly yarns. The mulesing-free certification ensures that the sheep have been treated ethically, without painful practices, while the Oeko-tex® certification guarantees the absence of harmful substances in the finished yarn.
📦 Skein format and yield
The 50-gram format with 175 meters of length is perfect for small and medium-sized projects. With a single skein, you can create a pair of baby booties and a matching bonnet, or an embroidered bib. For a baby crib blanket (approximately 80x100 cm), you will need approximately 6-8 skeins, depending on the stitch used and personal tension.
The weight is guaranteed by the manufacturer, with minimal yardage tolerances due to the artisanal nature of production. For projects requiring multiple skeins, we recommend purchasing the entire required quantity at once, preferably from the same color lot, to avoid shade differences between the various skeins. The lot is indicated on the product label.
🧶 Recommended workability
The recommended needles are 3 or 3.5 mm. This size produces an even stitch, neither too tight nor too loose, ideal for garments that need to be soft yet structured. With 3 mm needles, you will get a more compact fabric, perfect for blankets and winter garments. With 3.5 mm needles, the result will be slightly softer and more draped, ideal for shawls and lightweight accessories. The reference sample is approximately 24 stitches x 32 rows on 10x10 cm in stockinette stitch with 3.5 mm needles.
For crochet, the recommended size is 3-4 mm. The cordonnet twist makes the yarn particularly smooth, perfect for openwork stitches, honeycomb stitch, and textured stitches. The crispness of the stitch enhances every detail of the work, making even the most complex stitches visible. Suitable for both beginners and experts, thanks to the ease of working and the regularity of the yarn.
✨ Why choose CAMILLA Wool
Compared to wool-acrylic blend yarns, CAMILLA Wool offers 100% purity, which translates into greater breathability, natural thermoregulation, and the absence of synthetic substances in contact with the baby's skin. Blended yarns may be more affordable, but they tend to retain moisture and do not have the same antibacterial properties as pure merino wool. Choosing a 100% natural yarn is an investment in the child's health and comfort.
The cordonnet twist is a concrete added value: it significantly reduces the problem of pilling (the formation of little balls on the fabric's surface), guarantees a crisper and more defined stitch compared to classic wools, and makes the yarn glide smoothly over the needles, reducing fatigue during work. This means that garments made with CAMILLA Wool maintain their beauty over time, even after numerous washes.
🎨 What you can create
CAMILLA Wool is perfect for complete newborn layettes: from onesies to socks, as well as bonnets, booties, and blankets. It is also ideal for children's sweaters and cardigans, shawls, scarves, and openwork garments for adults. The yarn's versatility makes it suitable for both winter projects and mid-season garments.
👩🎨 Who it is suitable for
This yarn is suitable for both beginners and experts. The yarn's smoothness and the regularity of the twist make it pleasant to work with, even for those new to knitting needles or crochet. The stitch is easy to define, allowing you to see the results of your work immediately and correct any mistakes without difficulty.
CAMILLA Wool is particularly appreciated by those who make newborn layettes to order, by hobbyists looking for a safe and certified yarn for their own children or grandchildren, and by artisans who sell handmade garments and want to guarantee their customers a superior quality product, Made in Italy and Oeko-tex® certified.
