This new King Cole yarn is made from 100% recycled materials including 35% wool and 25% viscose (plant fibre). The rest is 20% polyamide and 20% acrylic and remember, ALL of it is recycled. It is firm but soft to the touch.
Each ball has a whopping 300m!
Available in 10 beautiful subtle colours which go together fabulously. This new yarn is perfect for outer garments and ideal for home accessories.
King Cole recommend a 5mm needle for garments to achieve a good drape; using a 4mm or 4.5mm needle will give a much sturdier finish to your work which is ideal for accessories such as bags.
King Cole have provided two free patterns for this year - one for a knitted blanket and one for a similar but crocheted blanket. You can download these from www.kingcole.com where you can also find out more about the recycling process.
