About the Yarn:
The striking Scheepjes River Washed (XL) yarn range has been created with a colored inner fiber which is surrounded by a contrastingly colored net. The result: a uniquely expressive yarn with a tactile and rustic quality. Giving all projects a tough and contemporary look, Scheepjes River Washed XL is the ideal worsted/aran weight yarn for creating a range of wearable items that transition through the changing seasons with ease. It's also the perfect yarn for those with a sensitive touch looking for a wool-free alternative to wool.
