DROPS SAFRAN

DROPS Safran – Soft, Strong & Naturally Beautiful Egyptian Cotton

DROPS Safran is a premium 100% Egyptian cotton yarn spun from long, combed fibers that provide exceptional softness and durability. Its unique spinning technique — twisting threads together in pairs before twisting again — gives it extra strength and a smooth, glossy surface, making it perfect for all your fine cotton creations.

This long-time favorite in the DROPS collection is loved for its silky sheen, softness, and versatility. Suitable for both knitting and crochet, Safran works beautifully for baby garments, summer tops, lightweight sweaters, and delicate accessories.

With an Oeko-Tex® Standard 100 Class I certification, DROPS Safran is completely free from harmful chemicals and safe for sensitive skin — even newborns.
