Incredibly soft & cozy, Stone Washed XL is a luscious worsted/ aran weight yarn that has incredible depth of color. The unique finish is reminiscent of stonewashed jeans & brings stitches to life. Gentle & non-irritating against skin, the yarn is a blend of cotton & acrylic. The cotton ply gives the yarn the "wash" quality, while acrylic provides the saturated color & gentle halo. Stone Washed XL knits & crochets up quickly into stunning accessories such as hats, cowls & mittens. It is also a wonderful yarn for cardigans, sweaters, vests, ponchos & wraps. The yarn is available in over 30 modern colors.
