MERICA WATERHOUSE

This beautiful yarn is made of 100% untreated merino Rambouillet wool, which is grown and processed in the USA.

The yarn is hand-dyed with great care in Montreal to create stunning colors that will enhance your knitting projects. Merica is perfect for knitting stranded colorwork designs, shawls, garments and winter accessories.  You'll love the crisp and natural feel of the untreated Rambouillet wool, which creates a high-quality fingering weight yarn that is both beautiful and sustainable.

John Williams is a pre-Raphaelite painter, a movement known to draw inspiration from mythology, Shakespearian characters from the Arthurian legend. The Lady of Shallot, Miranda The Tempest and Ophelia are three canvases that I really like from Waterhouse's work that has transcended nature in all its depth. - 𝑳𝒐𝒖𝒊𝒔𝒆
