What is this yarn and when do you use it?

This cotton yarn from folia is intended for knitting, crocheting and decorative applications. You choose it when you have a project that calls for soft, natural fibres, such as crocheting a basket, knitting an accessory or decorating a craft project.

Why this specific variant?

This yarn has a structure of 32/2x8 and is twisted several times, which makes it sturdier than simply spun yarn. Thanks to this multiple twist, the yarn holds its shape well during handling, which works nicely for both knitting and crochet. The colour pale lilac gives your projects a soft, light purple tint.

An honest note on the material

The yarn is made of 100% cotton, which means it has no stretch the way wool does. That makes it less suitable for clothing that has to fit snugly against the body, but ideal for bags, storage baskets, home decoration and embellishments. The high tear resistance means you can work firmly without the thread breaking easily.

Practical information for use

One ball contains 50 grams with a thread length of 150 metres. Keep this in mind when estimating the amount needed for your project: for larger pieces you may need several balls. Also check the recommended needle size for the 32/2x8 structure to achieve an even finish, and choose needle or crochet hook sizes that match it.
