Notes:

The ball band gauge of this yarn changed in 2015/2016 to 19 sts on 4mm needles from 22 sts on 3.5mm needles. It’s the same yarn but Bergere de France changed the recommended needle size, and in doing so changed the yarn weight category from DK (3) to Worsted Weight (4).

A Raveller has indicated that this yarn used to be an acrylic and wool blend according to the ball band she has. The Bergere de France website (French and English) currently state that it is 100% acrylic. (Nov 2014)

Barisienne gives you all the advantages of a classic 100% acrylic yarn: regular, easy to care for and easy to knit. It’s perfect for kids and grown-ups alike, and great for patterned knits, with a wide range of vibrant colours to suit all your creative projects.

Belle gamme de 32 coloris pour suivre toutes vos envies de couleurs. Ce fil, au prix très accessible et facile à entretenir, convient particulièrement bien aux enfants.
