100g. 100% Cotton. DK.
Made from 100% recycled cotton, this is a practical, no-nonsense yarn with solid environmental credentials. The recycled construction gives it a subtly rustic texture that’s well-suited to hardworking household projects.
It works up firmly on 4mm needles, producing a dense, durable fabric that holds its structure well — ideal where you need a cloth or item that won’t stretch out of shape with use. The cotton composition means it knits cleanly without splitting, though it has little give, so a consistent tension makes a real difference here.
The obvious home for this yarn is dishcloths and face flannels, where its absorbency and washability genuinely earn their keep. It’s equally well suited to market bags, pot holders, and simple flat items like placemats where that firm, stable fabric is an advantage.
The palette leans into natural, earthy tones that reflect the recycled origin of the fibre — expect undyed-looking neutrals alongside a handful of muted brights.
