Woolly Yarns Super Woolly

Why you'll love it

Super Woolly is your go-to for quick, cosy projects — a chunky 20ply yarn made from 100% pure New Zealand wool that’s ready to fly off your needles.

Big stitches, bold texture and fast results make this yarn perfect for chunky sweaters, squishy blankets, hats and statement accessories. If you love instant gratification knitting (or crocheting), this one’s for you.

Spun from non-superwash wool, Super Woolly keeps all the natural goodness of wool — warm, breathable and moisture-wicking — with a lovely, slightly rustic feel. It’s sustainably sourced, and milled and dyed in New Zealand.

The colour palette is designed for mixing and matching, from soft, subtle tones to richer shades and brighter pops — or you can let a single colour do all the talking.

Super Woolly really shines in chunky cables and textured stitches, where those big, bold stitches can take centre stage.

Fun, fast and seriously cosy — this is the yarn for projects you can’t wait to cast on (and finish!).

Yarn Weight vs Yarn Ply

"Ply" technically refers to the construction of the yarn. It's the number of strands that are twisted together to make a single piece of yarn. While "ply" historically related to the thickness (or weight) of the yarn, today's spinning technology means that the number of plies doesn't always correspond directly to the thickness of the yarn.

However, in some countries, including Australia & the UK, the numbering system of yarn ply still refers to the thickness of the yarn, so it's possible to have a single ply 4ply yarn! - this means that the yarn is constructed of a single ply, but has the traditional thickness of a 4ply sock / fingering yarn).

About

Woolly Yarn Co

Woolly Yarn Co introduce themselves in the voice of the yarn itself – "My name is WOOLLY and I am a fun loving yarn that is looking to be with you for a good long time." That's really the whole of their story, and we love them for it.

Woolly Yarns are non-superwash on purpose. They aren't fans of the chemicals the process uses, which does mean a cool hand wash and dry flat rather than straight in the machine. And the colours are a joy to play with. They're chosen so they coordinate endlessly while each one still holds its own – soft scandi pastels through to richer, deeper tones with a few brights thrown in. New Zealand wool, made in New Zealand.

As WOOLLY says, "I would love to become your new favourite sweater, warm blanket or colourful beanie!"
