How the yarn behaves

Self-striping nylon/acrylic from the Cherub family — colour transitions happen automatically as you knit or crochet, with no joins to weave in. Sits in the soft-handed, vegan-friendly Cherub line, so good for kids and people who react to wool. Stitch definition is reasonable; the striping carries the visual interest, so simple shapes show the colour off best. Light warmth, easy care. Machine wash gentle; dry on low or flat. Currently a discontinued line, often found in stash and resale.
