How the yarn behaves

Lion Brand Wool-Ease is a classic plied worsted-weight yarn loved for its versatility and value, with a feel and warmth close to wool but the easy care of a synthetic blend. The standard solids, heathers and twists are mostly acrylic with some wool; specialty colours include small amounts of viscose or polyester for tweed or metallic effects. It is suited to sweaters, cardigans, scarves, wraps, hats, mittens, baby and children's garments, blankets and amigurumi, and works cleanly in both knit and crochet. The wool content gives a little memory and warmth while the acrylic adds resilience. Care: machine wash and tumble dry on a gentle to medium setting, making it ideal for everyday wear.
