MinnowMerino Holiday Dog Coat
MinnowMerino
100% extra fine superwash merino wool
MinnowMerino is a super-soft, machine-
washable, worsted-weight yarn. The loosewist of this single-ply, extra-fine merino allows
for quick knits that are cozy and lightweight.
MinnowMerino comes in Jil Eaton’s signa-
ure palette. The 27 colors are clean, bright,
and saturated with the allure of a freshly
opened box of crayons. The yarn is great for
il’s kids designs, past and present, and it’s
also great for just about anything you’d like
o make in a worsted-weight yarn.
