Gradient by Schoppel Wolle is a felted yarn made from 100% Merino wool and is distinguished by its long, harmonious colour shifting gradients. Schoppel Wolle Gradient combines high-quality materials with an innovative dyeing technology, allowing for truly unique knitting and crochet projects.

Gradient felted merino wool is exceptionally soft and comfortable on the skin so is perfect for sensitive individuals. This DK yarn is lightweight yet voluminous thanks to the unique felting technology used by Schoppel. The yarn maintains a special lightness without losing volume or structure making it ideal for warm but non-bulky garments. The special processing gives the yarn a subtly felted texture, adding a unique visual and tactile quality to your projects. Due to the felted construction, Gradient is also quite resistant to pilling for such a wonderfully soft yarn.

Schoppel Wolle Gradient features harmonious, elongated colour transitions that slowly melt into each other with no harsh or abrupt striping. Thanks to special dyeing techniques, each colour gradient is one-of-a-kind, making every project unique!

Why we Love it! 'Such a smooth, plump and soft yarn that doesn't pill! The colour changes are really slow and gradual and the yarn has a nice sheen to it'
