Is Ewe Ewe Yarns Ewe So Sporty wool yarn suitable for sensitive skin and baby projects?

Absolutely! Ewe So Sporty is made from 100% superwash fine merino wool yarn, which is extremely soft, springy, and gentle on sensitive skin. It's a favorite for baby clothes, blankets, and children's accessories, thanks to its plush feel and easy-care instructions. Many customers specifically choose it for baby projects knowing it's both soft and non-irritating.

How do I care for items made with this sport weight wool yarn? Is it really machine washable?

Yes, Ewe So Sporty is truly a machine washable merino wool yarn! For best results, turn your finished items inside out and wash in cool water on a gentle cycle. You can either tumble dry on low or lay flat to dry—both preserve the yarn’s softness and shape. This easy-care aspect makes it perfect for everyday, high-use garments and gifts.

Does this yarn have good color selection and how do I choose coordinating shades?

Ewe So Sporty offers over 18 shades, ranging from playful pastels and bright colors to chic neutrals. You’ll find plenty of options for colorwork, striped patterns, or matching specific needs. If you want to mix and match, the palette is designed so many shades coordinate beautifully, making it easy to create multi-color projects. Browse the full lineup and see which shades catch your eye—or ask us for recommendations based on your project!

Is Ewe So Sporty durable? Will it pill or wear out quickly after washing?

Customers love how well Ewe So Sporty wool yarn holds up! The tightly plied sport weight construction gives projects crisp stitch definition and helps resist pilling. The superwash merino is treated for durability, so it stays soft and looks great through many washes—making it ideal for everyday garments and children’s wear. To maximize longevity, wash in cool water and dry as recommended.

Are there any issues with knots in the skeins or packaging and how are shipping concerns handled?

While the vast majority of customers report smooth and knot-free skeins, on rare occasions there might be a small knot. This is common in natural fiber yarns and usually easy to work around. If you experience repeat issues or notice a problem with your skein, let us know right away—Apricot Yarn & Supply is committed to making it right! We carefully pack your wool yarn to prevent tangling and address shipping concerns quickly to ensure your satisfaction.
