Biella Yarn has launched its new Fall/Winter 2026/2027 collection, celebrating its 25th anniversary by honoring classic yarns while embracing innovation and sustainability. Showcasing a forward-looking approach, the collection integrates smart technologies and digital possibilities with a strong commitment to environmental responsibility.
At the core of the collection is the Victoria Nm 2/30 and Nm 2/48, crafted from 100 per cent Merino Wool Extrafine. Renowned for its softness and versatility, Victoria continues to be a staple for sophisticated designs. Over the years, the core range expanded to include Brisbane Nm 2/60, a 100 per cent Merino Wool Super 120’s yarn. Both Victoria and Brisbane are available through Biella Yarn's stock service and are celebrated for their extensive color palettes.
Reflecting a desire for stability and authenticity, the new color palette for these foundational yarns features deep mid-tones and warm earth tones that emphasize timelessness over fleeting trends. Complementing these are icy, ethereal shades that evoke tranquility, along with contrasting hues like blackcurrant and golden yellows, all seamlessly integrated with classic neutrals.
The collection is further enriched with luxurious blends such as Pasco Nm 2/30 and coarse yarns like Ascot Nm 3000 and Ascot Nm 5000.
A notable addition is Sesel Nm 2/60, a unique blend of wool and a bio-based, biodegradable fiber derived from seaweed. This combination offers a smooth, cooling hand-feel that enhances the natural properties of Merino wool.
Emphasizing circularity, Karma is Südwestwolles Group’s initiative to maximize yarn utilization by transforming pre-consumer production waste into new yarns. This process reduces the need for virgin resources. Using worsted spinning, they developed Alisei Nm 2/30 and Nm 2/48 (80% Merino Wool Extrafine, 20 per cent recycled wool), a high-quality yarn combining performance with responsible resource use.
New technology Gammaspun has led to the development of Morwell Nm 2/30 and Nm 2/48 and Perth Nm 2/28 and Nm 2/48 yarns. These yarns form a new range within the flat knitting collection.
In line with previous seasons, Biella Yarn collaborated with MRC Knitwear Research Studio to explore the creative potential of its yarns, resulting in elegant eveningwear pieces that highlight the yarns' unique textures, drape, and refined finishes.
