LIMITED SUPPLY

Spun from soft recycled cotton, this yarn is perfect for baby clothes, lightweight garments, placemats, runners and even washcloths.

Made from cotton fabric pieces that would otherwise be discarded when fabric is cut to produce tee-shirts, our Recycled Cotton yarn reduces waste and conserves resources.

These clippings are sorted by color, minimizing the amount of dyeing needed for the final yarn. The sorted cotton fiber is then blended with acrylic for enhanced performance. Exclusive shades create beautiful, unique heathers and tweeds.

Made in the USA!

Guage: Knit: 18 stitches x 24 rows = 4" (10 cm) on size 8 (5mm) needles Crochet: 13 sc x 16 rows = 4" (10 cm) on size I-9 (5.5 mm) hook

This yarn is featured in our Everyday Placemats from Liz Gipson's new DVD Workshop Slots and Holes.

Color Cards: If you are particular about color, the best way to see actual dyed yarn samples is to order the individual Color Card for the yarn you are interested in. This will give you the truest way to know what color you are ordering. Every yarn has it's own color card. Skein and cone colors are shown on the same card. Many of our color cards are also available as color copies made on a high quality DC-50 Xerox Color Copier and are fairly true to colors. You can order these through our shopping cart by clicking on the Color Card View/Buy below.
