100% Australian Merino Wool Jersey - Chilli Red | 200GSM - 50CM

If you're looking for a natural fibre that does it all, this is it.

Our 100% Australian made merino wool jersey is grown, dyed, and knitted right here in Australia using certified non-mulesed merino wool. At 200gsm, it has a beautiful drape and a lightweight feel that makes it a versatile choice for year round sewing.

If you're expecting merino to feel exactly like cotton jersey, you'll notice a difference. Merino has its own unique character and hand feel, which is part of what makes it such a remarkable natural fibre.

Where merino really shines is in the wearing. It naturally helps regulate body temperature, helping to keep you comfortable across changing seasons. It's breathable, moisture wicking, odour resistant, and surprisingly versatile, making it ideal for garments you'll wear often and for longer periods between washes.

Whether you're sewing layering tops, base layers, dresses, babywear, children's clothing, sleepwear, or relaxed everyday staples, this Australian merino wool jersey creates garments that continue to work beautifully in your wardrobe throughout the year.

As a completely natural, renewable, and biodegradable fibre, merino wool is a wonderful choice for sewists looking to create a more thoughtful handmade wardrobe while supporting Australian manufacturing.
