About this product
Loop Flora is our soft, versatile worsted-weight yarn, hand-dyed in small batches in Philadelphia. Made from 100% superwash merino, Flora has a smooth 4-ply construction, beautiful stitch definition, and the springy softness that makes merino a pleasure to knit and wear.
Dyed in Loop's signature semi-solid and variegated colors, Flora is an easy choice for sweaters, hats, scarves, cowls, blankets, baby knits, and other everyday projects. Its machine-washable fiber also makes it practical for frequently worn pieces and handmade gifts.
