CLOUD COTTON [100% Organic Cotton], Estelle

Estelle Cloud Cotton, made in Peru

Cloud Cotton is a pure organic cotton yarn spun using beeswax. It is very soft, velvety, and absorbent. This yarn is in aran weight and is dyed in two sets of colorways: beautiful solid pastel shades of lime, amber, pink, sky blue, and other colours, and deep juicy shades of brown, hot pink, black, deep blue, etc. Textured stitches, or open-work patterns are suitable for Cloud Cotton, and can result in a durable and luxurious garment. It has great insulation properties. This yarn is designed for autumn-winter-spring knitwear, baby articles, including afghans, blankets, toys, and fast decor projects are suitable as well.

For information: To be considered organic, cotton crops should be not only organically grown, but also must be spun with beeswax. Usually, less expensive cotton yarns are spun using paraffin wax.
