Rauma Garn Babygarn is a beautifully soft 4ply merino wool. As the name suggests, it’s perfectly suited to baby garments due to it’s softness and the fact it’s nice and light, so won’t overheat little ones. It is also machine washable, ideal for new parents who don’t have time to be hand-washing.

Babygarn is worsted spun. This method of spinning tends to use longer fibres which are spun up tightly. Worsted spinning creates very soft, dense yarn, that has excellent drape and crisp stitch definition.

Care:

Please note – although the label states that Babygarn can be machine washed at 40°, we recommend taking extra caution when machine washing your knits and going no higher than 30°.

Rauma Yarn is a Nowegian family run brand, founded in 1927. It began when Erling Digernes took over the operation of a small woollen factory in Veblungsnes in Rauma. Today, it is the third generation of Erling who run Rauma Garn. The operation has expanded, but traces of the original factory still remain.
