Tollegno 1900 · Free Multi 2/28 · 1400m/1531yds per 100g/3.5oz · 100% Merino (WV)

Free Multi 2/28 by Tollegno 1900 is pure merino in ultra-fine weight from one of Italy's most established wool specialists. Founded in 1900 in the Biella district, the historic heartland of Italian fine wool production, Tollegno has spent over a century refining the art of merino spinning, and Free Multi 2/28 is the direct expression of that expertise: clean, even, and consistently excellent from cone to finished garment.

100% merino delivers everything the fiber is known for: exceptional softness against the skin, natural warmth without bulk, gentle elasticity that makes knitting a pleasure, and a refined, smooth surface that shows stitch patterns with clarity and precision. There is a quiet confidence to this yarn — no additives, no blends, just merino at its best, spun by people who have been doing this for generations.

Free Multi 2/28 works beautifully as a standalone yarn and as an exceptional companion thread, adding merino's natural warmth, softness, and elasticity to any combination.

Versatile Use

At 1400m/100g, Free Multi 2/28 works from fingering through worsted weight for hand knitting and crochet. For machine knitting, finer strand combinations are equally possible. Pure merino maintains its softness, warmth, and natural elasticity at every strand count. Ideal for refined sweaters, cardigans, shawls, and accessories where the quality of the fiber speaks for itself.
