A bit thicker version of Tencel Bamboo Fine. Just as soft and silky to feel. Some new colours - really fall colours.

Tencel Bamboo Double is a delicate and soft yarn with a silky sheen. The yarn is amazingly delicious, and feels beautiful in the hands, whilst knitting or crocheting. In addition, the yarn is strong and holds its shape.

Tencel Bamboo Double consists of 9 threads that each consist of 2 threads - which means a total of 18 threads. It can be compared to its even finer ‘sister yarn’, Tencel Bamboo Fine, which consists of a total of 12 threads.

Info on the material ‘Tencel’:

What is it?
Tencel is an ecologically sustainable organic material, made from wood chips primarily from beech and eucalyptus trees. The trees are FSC certified and the wood chips originate from the natural thinning of forests and as byproducts of other timber production.

Tencel is the most sustainable material made under excellent environmental considerations.

Tencel’s uniqueness.
The fibres’ composition from beech and eucalyptus make the Tencel material really comfortable against the skin. The fibre’s smooth structure makes the yarn softer than silk and smoother for the skin than wool and cotton, and is also super absorbent.

The thread can be more loosely spun in some places than others, which is a natural part of the thread’s character. The finished result is so lovely.

Children will love the Tencel Bamboo Double yarn!
It would be difficult to find another yarn so gentle and soft against the skin as the Tencel Bamboo Double yarn - Children will definitely be delighted with the feeling against the skin.
