How the yarn behaves

DROPS Cotton Light is an all-rounder blended from cotton and polyester micro-fibre, where the micro-fibre is finer than silk and does not absorb moisture; combined with cotton this creates light, durable and breathable garments suitable for both summer and winter wear. The multi-strand structure gives smooth, even stitch definition perfect for tops, sweaters, cardigans, baby items, homewares and amigurumi. It knits beautifully; in crochet it can split a little because the strands are smooth and silky. Oeko-Tex Class I certified, so suitable for baby clothes. Care: machine wash gentle and dry flat. Plant-blend yarns have little elasticity, so test tension on fitted garments.
