This is a gorgeously soft, cotton yarn. It is velvety and plump, with a soft twist, making it squishier than our other cotton yarns. The yarn takes the dye really nicely. For the best colour uptake, see notes on dyeing cellulose fibres. We recommend Procion MX, fibre-reactive or natural dyes for this yarn. We think this would make a wonderful woven fabric, but care would need to be taken using it as a warp, as it is softly spun and continued friction may make the fibres fluff up.
