Merino wool/ elastane yarn dyed jersey in a variegated light grey colour.  This fabric has very good drape and is soft and dry to the touch.  Although it's a single knit fabric, the cut edges don't curl too much.  Very lightweight and somewhat translucent.  Suitable for clothing such as drapey cardigans, lightweight short or long-sleeved tees, tunics, cover-ups, etc.   Wool is naturally odour-resistant, breathable, moisture-wicking (so it dries really quickly), and temperature-regulating.  I find that this weight of wool jersey can also be worn in Singapore as short-sleeved tees or cover-ups.

Merino wool is finer than regular sheeps wool.  I personally can't wear regular sheeps wool at all, but I find these merino wool fabrics comfortable to wear and not scratchy - still, please buy with care if your skin is very sensitive.
