Deliciously soft, Bozzolo is a summery light worsted weight yarn spun with 100% cotton. The brushed cotton has a matte finish & a velvety look. The chain construction will ensure that tops, tees, cardigans & accessories maintain shape. The yarn is also a lovely choice for baby blankets & clothes. The yarn comes in an interesting mix of solids & happy, self-striping colorways. Stick with one color or mix a solid with a variegated for a fun take on stripes, mosaic or color blocking.
