The best of plant and animal fibers come together in Woolen Cotton! The coolness, strength, and shine of Pima cotton and the springiness, warmth, and bounce of Merino wool create a perfect yarn for lightweight projects that can be worn year-round. The resulting fabric is sophisticated and soft, with the feel of your favorite cotton sweater but with the lightweight and elasticity of wool. This yarn is perfect for your favorite designs calling for DK-weight yarns, particularly those with textured stitches and cables, which this yarn shows to advantage. Dyed with early autumn knits in mind, Woolen Cotton comes in beautiful jewel tones and elegant neutrals inspired by homesteads and small farms.

Also available in Bare. Note: For best results, choose a dyeing method that works with plant-based fibers.
