Dale Garn Baby Ull

When choosing yarn for baby or children's knitwear, Dale Garn Baby Ull is of the highest quality. Dale Garn is one of the more exclusive yarn qualities in our range. Here you get 100% merino wool, which feels nice and soft against the skin.

Softness is merino wool's best feature

Merino yarn is not itchy against the skin, making it ideal for baby knitwear and children's clothing. The yarn itself consists of four strands that are spun together into one thread. Combined with the efficient spinning process, this means you get a strong yarn with a long lifespan. The wool comes from Australian Merino sheep and is typically a finer quality than regular wool yarn.

Merino wool is superwashed treated. Wool usually has a special scaly layer that makes it sensitive to machine washing. If washed without being superwash treated, the yarn will tangle and shrink. The superwash treatment itself involves giving the yarn a special chlorine treatment. Afterwards, the chlorine is removed from the yarn through rinsing baths. No residual chlorine remains in the yarn.

This special process improves the washing properties of the yarn, which means that the yarn can now be washed on a gentle cycle, i.e. a wool cycle at 40⁰ degrees without the use of fabric softener. It is still important that clothes or accessories are dried lying down, i.e. flat, either stretched out on blocking mats or on a heated floor. This is definitely an advantage if you are knitting for babies and children. Typically, children's clothes get dirty more often, and it's just easier in a family with children to be able to stuff their knitting into the washing machine than to hassle with hand washing.

Another advantage of merino wool in particular is that it is a heat-regulating yarn quality. This means that the natural material warms when it's cold and has a cooling effect when it's warm. This makes merino wool a wonderful natural material that can be used all year round by adults and children alike.

Dale Yarn's color chart is ready to get your knitting on

The special thing about Dale Garn Baby Ull is their large color chart. Dale Garn has chosen to divide their colors into different groups. First, you'll find the neutral colors that can match virtually any other color. These include black, charcoal gray, gray mottled, white shades and beige.

Next come the pastel colors, and here there are two variants. There are the regular pastel colors as we know them. The colors appear almost bleached or powdered, so the pink color becomes whitish. The regular pastels come in five variants: light yellow, pink, light blue, putty and light green.

In the second variant, the colors have a greater intensity, so they stand out nicely, even though they have been toned down. Here you'll find eight variants such as pale pink, dus peach, dus green, dus gray-blue, sand, dus pink, dus blue and dus gray. Some colors can almost seem to have a silvery tinge to them.

Within the category of bright colors, there is also a division that marks a difference in shade. These are called duse in Norwegian, and in this category the colors are more subdued than the other bright colors, which are more comparable to bright colors. The last category is called retro colors and ranges from red shades such as Krapp red, Retrorød to yellow shades such as Maisgul, Safran and Gullgrønn. They also include the harsher blue shades such as Denim, Petrol, Bluebell, Navy and Dark Navy.

With the wide range of colors, you can add a unique touch to your knitting or crochet projects. A beautiful color combination is essential for a beautiful project. Dale Yarn Baby Ull is such a fine quality that it is suitable for knitting and crocheting children's clothing and accessories.

The soft and exclusive merino yarn can be used for baby blankets, pram chains, rattles, teddy bears and cuddly toys.
