This unique yarn has a smooth and crispy texture, because the surface of the yarn has a coating of viscous rayon films. It is perfect for spring and summer clothes and accessories. It feels like linen, but the coating comes off after handling or washing, so that it will soften up greatly. 

Tips for the Cotton Fine yarn

•  Winding:

  When you go to put the hank on your swift, always check carefully at the two points where the hank is tied to make sure all the strands are coming out of those points the right way. If so much as one strand does a U-turn and goes the other way, you’ll end up with a hot mess on your hands.

  Wind the ball tight. (Put tension on the yarn as you wind. the ball may fly from the ball winder if there is not enough tension.) This is a good tip for all plant fiber.

• Stuff tissue in the center hole and use the outside end of the ball for knitting.

• Needles:

  If you feel the yarn is slippery to handle, try using wooden or bamboo needles.

•  Join new balls:

  Using the magic knot method.

• Blocking:

  We recommend filling a bowl/bucket with water, submerging your swatch or garment and lightly squeezing it until there are no bubbles. Do not soak. Remove swatch/garment from water and squeeze as much water out of it as you can. Roll in a towel and step on it to remove as much water as possible. Stretch it, lay flat, pin sides and let dry completely.
