Adrienne's Crochet
A selection of fine crochet gifts for Baby and Nana alike. Adrienne has supplied Ballantynes for a number of years and Christchurch's leading folk art and craft shop.
This is an opportunity to get your hands on beautifully hand crafted gifts for Nanas and Babies.
The merino wool used for the shawls is 17 micron wool - regarded as superfine. Many quality garments are made from 19- 22.5 micron merino, and anything less than 17 micron is specially grown for exclusive and expensive European brands.
The 17 micron merino wool is unique. It is unlike any conventional merino yarn sold through retail outlets.
This yarn was not spun for cone sales but specifically for the knitting of high quality apparel. Read more about New Zealand Merino Wool
