Merino Vintage Yarn develops its appearance through a specially controlled hank-dyeing route. Colour is applied to the yarn before knitting, and subsequent wet finishing removes part of that colour to create an intentionally aged or irregular effect across the finished surface.

Hank Dyeing Builds a Worn Effect into Merino Yarn

Because the colour treatment begins at the yarn stage, it interacts with the knitted loop structure rather than sitting only on the garment face. The process offers another way to create visual texture in Merino fabrics without relying on a conventional uniform dyeing result.
