Choosing Heirloom

Frequently asked questions

Merino Magic, the core of the range

Heirloom Merino Magic is a pure merino spun in Australia, soft enough for baby knits and hard-wearing enough for an everyday jumper. Merino Magic 8 ply has 105 metres in a 50g ball, Merino Magic 10 ply has 85 metres on 5mm needles, and Merino Magic Chunky is a 125g ball with 100 metres on 6.5mm needles. Merino Magic Medley is the 8 ply with colour that shifts gradually as you knit.

Alpaca, cotton and blends

Heirloom Alpaca 8 ply is 100% alpaca, warm and gentle on sensitive skin. Heirloom Arcadia blends wool, bamboo and alpaca in 8 ply for warmth with a little sheen and drape. Heirloom Cotton comes in 4 ply and 8 ply, with a smooth finish that suits warm weather garments.
