What is Summer?

YarnArt Summer is a light from YarnArt, made in Turkey. Composition: 51% cotton / 49% viscose. One skein holds 85 m of yarn and weighs 50 g.

How the yarn behaves

Cotton-with-viscose summer base. The viscose adds a quiet sheen and softness; cotton keeps it cool against the skin and breathable. Smooth on the needles or hook, with clean stitch definition and a fluid drape that suits summer tops, tunics, light cardigans and decorative crochet. Limited stretch like pure cotton, so swatch fitted garments and block them washed before sizing. Machine washable on gentle. Holds colour well thanks to the mercerised cotton component; viscose can dull at high heat.
