Bamboo Wool - great, soft and warm novelty from Hjertegarn manufacturer. When you want something warmer than cotton, but cooler than wool, knitting yarns made from wool and plant fibers are perfect solution. The Danish yarn manufacturer, having already had wool and in its collection for several years, takes another step by introducing a perfect combination of wool and bamboo. Bamboo Wool knitting yarns are quite reasonably presented as socks-sweater yarns. Due to the standard "sock gauge" (50 g/200 m) and 25% nylon, they are strong enough and perfect for knitting socks. However, the soft, gentle wool and the freshness of bamboo make them a good choice for sweaters, shawls, vests or other knitwear. The threads have a beautiful natural sheen of bamboo fiber. We would consider Bamboo Wool yarns to be soft enough to be suitable for people who are more sensitive to wool. This yarn also fits perfect for children socks, sweaters, vests, baby blankets and other handicrafts where soft and pleasant to touch yarn is needed.
