Wool

Wool is one of the most versatile threads in needlework: it warms, shapes well and is suitable for clothing as well as accessories and repair work. At your Stoffschwester, you will find a wide range that appeals to hobby knitters and crocheters alike - from sock wool to darning and batting yarn to macramé and crochet yarns.

Which wool for which project?

Sock wool is particularly hard-wearing and often reinforced with polyamide - ideal for socks, children's clothing and anything that can withstand a lot of wear and tear. Darning and darning yarn is often used as a strong insertion yarn or for reinforcing and darning. Macramé and crochet yarns are available in different thicknesses and are suitable for decoration, bags or summer garments.

Processing tips

• Check the length and needle size to achieve the right stitch sample.
• Follow the care instructions on the label: Many wool blends are machine washable, delicate threads are better hand washed.
• Use darning or basting yarn for long-lasting socks and durable sewing.
• When crocheting and macramé, pay attention to the yarn thickness so that the pattern and strength are right.

Our selection covers different materials - pure wool, blends and synthetic alternatives - so you can find the right thread for every project. As an experienced sewing expert, I recommend knitting or crocheting a small sample first before planning a whole project. This way you avoid surprises in terms of size and drape.
