Upcycled Merino is Merino fibre that has been re-blended from multiple spin runs at the mill. It is collected together, re-combed and made into a yarn. This fibre would otherwise be wasted. Upcycled Ultra DK is sometimes slightly more cream than the equivalent non-upcycled yarn. The texture is also slightly more velvety than standard Ultra DK. It takes the dye well, although colours may be a tiny bit more muted. This yarn speckles well and creates a lovely, soft fabric with a nice drape.
