Adriafil Woolcot

Description

The ideal “between seasons” yarn, Adriafil Woolcot is an all-natural blend of organic cotton and extrafine (18 micron diameter) merino wool.

Woolcot offers all the warmth and breathability of merino wool but at the same time is light and airy. How? Its secret lies in its structure – Woolcot is a “blown” yarn, meaning that its fibres are blown into a mesh core to form the strand, rather than being twisted around each other. That makes this yarn cosy, durable and lightweight – and less likely to split as you knit it! It also gives Woolcot a gorgeous fuzzy “halo”, making it the ideal choice for a quick cute scarf project, or to create a stylish statement sweater.
