Crafters, meet YarnArt Jeans Tropical – a super popular yarn for a reason! It's a sport weight (fine #2) yarn, a 55% cotton and 45% acrylic blend. That means it's soft like cotton but has a bit more durability and ease of care from the acrylic. Each skein is 50 grams with 174 yards (160 meters), so you get a good amount to work with. It comes in tons of beautiful, self-striping variegated colors that create gorgeous patterns automatically in your projects. Because of its smooth texture and cotton content, it's a top choice for amigurumi (stuffed toys), baby clothes, lightweight summer sweaters, shawls, and even punch needle embroidery. It works up beautifully on 3.5 mm (US 4) knitting needles or a US E-4 crochet hook. Machine washable on cool. If you love colorful, easy-care projects, you'll love this yarn.
