A cool cotton yarn for summer! DROPS Cotton Light is a lovely soft yarn made from 50% cotton and 50% polyester micro. The micro fibers are thinner than silk strands and they do not take up moisture. This, combined with cotton, gives both summer and winter garments that breathe, have good shape stability and high durability. DROPS Cotton Light is also the perfect yarn for children garments, as it is machine washable and comes in a wide variety of fun and vibrant colours. The quality is spun from multiple strands which gives a smooth and even stitch definition. Please note, if you intend to use this yarn to crochet, that it tends to split due to the strands smooth and silky character.

€1.16A superwash yarn for all seasons! DROPS Cotton Merino is a combination of extra fine merino and long cotton fibers. We have chosen not to card the merino wool and the cotton together, which highlights each of the fibers properties in a better way, while at the same time allows to achieve more vibrant colors and textures. And as in all our merino yarns, the merino wool originates from free-range animals in South America. Made from many thin strands spun together, which give the yarn roundness and elasticity, it is especially suitable for cable, structure and moss patterns. This special construction makes it extra important to treat the garment right: make sure that you knit with the correct tension and rather use a tight tension than loose. Don't wash your garment too warm, never leave it to soak and let the garment dry flat. Very pleasant to work with, DROPS Cotton Merino provides comfortable garments with clear and regular stitches. The wool is superwash treated and very gentle on the skin, which makes it suitable for baby and children clothing. Yarn Group: B (20 - 22 stitches) / 8 ply / DK / worsted Knitting tension: 10 x 10 cm = 21 sts x 28 rows Machine wash on gentle cycle 40°C / Don’t use fabric softener / Dry Flat Made in EU This yarn has an Oeko-Tex® certification (certificate number 25.3.0016), Standard 100, Class I.
