This blend has been discontinued as I’ve discovered the Bamboo is less environmentally friendly than hoped.

Slightly exotic with bounce in its heart, this is an all season blend. Insulating while light and soft enough for airy garments, wraps and shawls, with a downy, powdery handle perfect for the most sensitive skins.

The 20% bamboo not only adds strength, but a soft organic lustre to dye quality and a gentle drape for beautiful garments or accessories.The resulting fabric is hardwearing, low pilling and butter soft for next to skin wear.

Bamboo’s natural anti-bacterial and moisture wicking properties make this the perfect fibre blend for both summer and winter knitting, keeping you cool in the summer and warm in winter.

Handwashing or machine soaking and spinning is recommended.
