ESTELLE ECO TWEED CHUNKY – 10 AQUA
Eco Tweed Chunky is a wonderful yarn for use next to the skin – from sweaters and shawls, to classic accessories! Because the GOTS classes all shorn animal fibres as “wool” (which is also consistent with Canadian Government Textile Labelling Standards), we have to call it wool, but it’s actually 50% Wool, 25% Alpaca (which accounts for the luxurious softness of this yarn) and 25% Cellulosic Viscose (Lyocell.) Using the Lyocell process, this viscose is completely benign and free of any toxic chemicals!
Because this yarn is woolen spun, more air is trapped alongside the fibres, giving it a larger number of meters per skein! Soft on your skin and for the planet, it’s the perfect yarn, making for a luxuriously soft knit!
