Description

This lovely Acala cotton yarn handspun by Amelia was spun from space-dyed cotton sliver, and the color changes were preserved by chain-plying the yarn.

Handspun on a wheel, this was a personal challenge met with aplomb -- in the county fair, this skein won a blue ribbon so you can be sure you are knitting, crocheting, or weaving with first class handspun! This would make a gorgeous accent in a handknit summer tank or woven handtowel.

You can see the story of this yarn's creation on my blog,
http://askthebellwether.blogspot.com/ ~ click on the topic YarnStory.

This skein has 74 yards of 3-ply yarn, 0.5 ounces, ~ 20 wraps per inch. I recommend a US 1/2.5mm needle or B hook.
Hand wash cool, air dry recommended to extend the life of any handmade item. Cotton is not a feltable yarn.

See the store policies for shipping details ~ we ship first class USA and internationally.
