Big Merino Wool | Juniper Moon Farm | Chunky Merino Wool Australia

Big Merino Wool is exactly what it sounds like, and it delivers on every count.

Made from 100% merino wool, this super bulky yarn is plush, warm and deeply satisfying to work with. The fibres come from a flock raised organically and sustainably in Uruguay.

Soft, cushiony and quick to work up, Big Merino Wool is the kind of yarn you reach for when you want a project that feels as good on the needles as it does once finished.

The colour range includes soft neutrals through to rich jewel tones, with warm earthy shades and vibrant pops of colour in between. For every 100g ball, you receive 80m of this certified organic merino wool.

A Yarn with a Story

Big Merino Wool carries three meaningful certifications: the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS), OEKO-TEX Made In Green and mulesing-free status. This is a strong set of credentials for a super bulky wool.

GOTS certification covers the entire production chain, from the farming of the raw fibre through to the finished yarn, ensuring organic standards are met at every stage. OEKO-TEX Made In Green adds a further layer of confidence around safe, responsible manufacturing.

The merino fibre itself is the star. Merino is a fine, crimped wool known for its softness and natural temperature regulation. It keeps you warm without overheating, and sits comfortably against the skin in a way that coarser wools cannot. In a super bulky weight like this, those properties translate into quick-knit warmth that is stunningly wearable.
