Berroco Mercado
Knit warm, cozy accessories, garments & home items with this versatile 2-ply, aran/ bulky weight yarn. Spun with 100% Peruvian highland wool, the yarn has a heritage feel with great durability.
The plump, round strand delivers crisp stitch definition for stranded colorwork, cables & textured stitches. We love this yarn for outdoor accessories such as hats, cowls, scarves & wraps, as well as throws & pillows. Mercado also wet felts beautifully for slippers, coasters & bags.
