Finally 100% merino wool I can trust to have no synthetic content. I love the 200 gram balls and the range of blues and greens.

I chose Lily pily, Gumdrop and Paperbark. The yarn is crocheting up beautifully with great stitch definition and no splitting. The colours are deliciously muted with subtle Heathering, very reminiscent of the Australian bush. Everyone who sees the colours loves them. They do have a lanolin scent, so be aware of that.

Wollemi is without doubt my favourite yarn to knit with. I love every second I get to spend with this stuff! Also, the smell is worth mentioning The Best. When will it be in 4ply?

Gorgeous colour and feel to these wool. I'm not an expert knitter but this project, PT8318, is coming along very nicely and may well end up being a real favourite. :)

I have loved Wollemi ever since Bendigo introduced it and my friend made a blanket with it. This colour is my favourite, it feels so good, the whole process of purchasing was easy and the delivery was sent without hesitation. I buy a lot online and BWM has never failed to impress with their products and professionalism. Thanks BENDIGO 💛💛💛💛💛

Absolutely gorgeous yarn. I am using this to make a cabled sweater. The stitch definition is beautiful and I am sure it will block out beautifully as well. I love the fact that its fully traceable and made in Australia

Lovely wool, haven’t used it yet. Only thing the colour wasn’t quite what I wanted. It’s more gray than green. I won’t complain

Lovely yarn to work with and wear. Have made a No Frills Cardigan with it. It is my fourth garment using Wollemei.

I've knitted three garments in Wollemi and have one on the go (the Evelyn Jumper in Bluestar)! Safe to say it's my favourite Bendigo yarn so far.

I love the blended colours, which I think give your fabric a bit more depth. It knits up so well, and is quite 'springy' and so I've had no sag with wearing my garments (a vest and two jumpers). Plus, love the story behind it.

Love wool especially yours great colours and textures, keep supplying, will keep buying. I especially love working with colours and trying out new combinations and textures, new and different looks. Thank you Mr, Mrs and Miss Bendigo. Love to visit someday, but sadly not at my age. Keep up the good work and may you never run out of ideas. Anna. Love to all. Xx
