What is Handknit Cotton?
Rowan Handknit Cotton is a medium from Rowan. Composition: 100% cotton. One skein holds 85 m of yarn and weighs 50 g.
How the yarn behaves
Smooth plied cotton with a matt finish that prizes stitch clarity. Cables, bobbles, lace and colourwork all look sharp; the surface bounces light off neatly without the glare of mercerised cotton. Heavy on the needles by nature, so chunky garments can grow vertically — best for cropped silhouettes, drop-shoulder shapes and homewares such as dishcloths, potholders and bags. Becomes softer with each wash. Machine washable on a gentle cycle. Watch the weight in long pieces: block to expected dimensions before measuring.
