The blend of cotton and wool creates a velvety soft base with a matt finish. It is super soft. We would recommend acid dyes for this yarn, bearing in mind that the cotton will not take the dye, this will mean that colours remain soft and muted. The resulting effect is just lovely. Colours will spread and speckles do not appear strongly but spread gently. An absolute dream for a summer yarn for lightweight cool garments with a lovely drape and a crisp clean stitch definition. The fabric shows stitch patterns really clearly and this should be exploited.
