Katia Concept Cotton Merino 101 Natural
Katia Concept Cotton Merino 101 Natural
This exquisitely soft 10 ply yarn from Katia is an interesting blend of cotton and extrafine merino. The yarn has a rounded, almost chainette appearance, due to its fibre-filled net construction. The core of the yarn is lighter in colour than its outer, slightly fluffy, halo, giving finished projects a superbly light loft and soft appearance. A truly beautiful yarn!
