 | Eco Baby Cotton Yarn by Debbie Bliss
Debbie Bliss began her Fairtrade Collection with Eco aran and here is the new arrival to the range - Eco Baby. The cotton yarn is a heavy 4ply/light DK (the same as her famous baby cashmerino). It has been manufactured from 100% organic cotton with an ecologically and socially conscious process through the Bio Re textile chain. The cotton yarn is dyed with non toxic, non carcinogenic dyes and the water is recycled and rendered drinkable by Idra (a non profit making organization). This dyeing process has given Debbie the opportunity to have a wonderfully vibrant palette still within the organic concept. Organic cotton yarns are notoriously difficult to produce, so it's brilliant to have a bright, colourful yarn with such ethical credentials.

 | Kool Kotton

We will continue to stock as many shades of Kool Kotton whilst they are still available - please contact us if you need stock information**
Kool Kotton is a lovely, soft blend of 50% cotton yarn and 50% acrylic yarn in a DK weight. The blend gives the yarn a lighter feel than a pure cotton making it really versatile. It looks great knitted into summery tops and cardigans for women and is also excellent for knitting into garments and accessories for children and babies including shawls and blankets. The range includes muted, sophisticated shades, classic white and cream and brighter vibrant shades for a splash of colour. Knit to any DK pattern.

 | Sirdar Snuggly Baby Bamboo
Sirdar Snuggly Baby Bamboo in my humble opinion is not a very good name for this gorgeous yarn. Babies love the soft feel and gentle lustre, but so do us grown-ups! It's a DK, spun from 80% bamboo and 20% wool making it perfect as a summery yarn to knit into tops and wraps, with the wool providing that bit of warmth on a chilly evening. It has a lovely drape and a lustre similar to that of a mercerised cotton. The range of colours is ever-increasing to now include rich, bright shades that would suit all the family.
Please note-shades marked with * are discontinued.
