Evita Merino

Looking for something a little different and unique?

Evita Merino from Katia is a good choice.

An exclusive limited-edition yarn, Evita Merino by Katia is perfect for luxurious end-of-year gift knitting.

With fluffy puffy wisps of synthetic fur interspersed along super-chunky merino wool, any project using this yarn will knit up in no time flat…leaving you plenty of time to knit one in every color.

And, of course, synthetic fur means no bunnies were harmed in the creation of this yarn! :-D

Here, we are happy to provide you with not just one but TWO free patterns, each using only one skein: a sumptuous scarf and a jaunty cowl…both perfect for glamour and warmth during the upcoming winter months.
