Crofter DK - was £2.75

Brand new yarn for Autumn 2008, a self-patterning Fair Isle DK yarn. It looks fantastic and is selling really well. Its yarn mix, like Denim Tweed, means it can be worn for much of the year, is light but warm, and sturdy enough to withstand machine washing.

Made from 60% acrylic, 25% cotton and 15% wool.

Machine washable.

Ball size: 50g, approx 170m.

Tension: 22 sts on 28 rows for a 10cm by 10cm square.
