Adorn silky merino is a lovely yarn but don’t be fooled by the label. So many wool producers make yarn thinner than they say. This yarn is definitely a sport or 5 ply yarn. Knitting it as Bendigo Woollen Mills 449 and the gauge on 3.5 and 3 mm needles is perfect at 26.5 to 10 cm. I am an average knitter and rarely alter from a 4mm needle for 8 ply wool or cotton. Just remember to swatch and be ready to adjust your pattern to suit the yarn. I feel a bit let down by Adorn manufacturing. Lucky I have plenty of experience or I would have returned to Wool Baa.
