Description

Kelbourne Woolens Skipper is a 4-ply 100% un-mercerized Tanguis cotton yarn, perfect for knitting, crochet, and crafts. Skipper is made of Peruvian Tanguis cotton, a soft and strong long staple cotton. A delight to work with, Skipper's variable gauge makes it ideal for baby garments, summery tees, amigurumi, accessories, or whatever else you’re hoping to create!

Tanguis cotton is absorbent and wicks moisture from perspiration better than normal cotton. Its long staple fiber length is more resistant to pilling and fluffing off on your hands as you work, and is less prone to wrinkling, too! Tanguis cotton was developed to be more resistant to cotton wilt, and as a result is more environmentally friendly. We love Skipper and know you will, too!

More Skipper Needed

Running out of Skipper year for a long-haul project, I stopped in to kelbourne and was delighted with the service, range of materials, and colors. The shop is a yarn paradise.

Kit!
Cordelia T-Shirt

I just finished, and it is so beautiful. The yarn is soft. The pattern is so unique-I learned several new things. This is the third sweater I’ve made from Kelbourne, and they all turned out well.

Fun and Easy

Love this pattern so far. Creates a lot of interesting textures in the hat while being an easy and quick project.

Perfect for winter knits

Love the colors and texture of Erin. I’m knitting the Daingean Pullover by Kate Osborn, co-owner of Kelbourne Woolens. The pattern is featured in Farm & Fiber Knits, 2024. The knitted fabric is substantial and holds it’s shape. Erin feels like it has a high bulk to weight ratio, so the knitted sweater is not overly heavy, but it will be very warm.

Delightful!

The assorted Perennial Minis I selected are going to be absolutely perfect for my Konpeito Candy scarf project. So excited!!!

As good as all the rest

I’ve loved every single Kelbourne Woolens yarn I’ve tried (Scout, Camper, Germantown) and Lucky Tweed does not disappoint. Stellar.

I absolutely adore this yarn

I am so happy that I finally started a project in Germantown yarn, it was long overdue! I am so so happy with how this yarn is knitting up. The yarn is wonderfully woolly while so being really soft to the touch. Stitch definition is really great and my knitting pre-blocking is so neat! I can’t wait to plan more projects in this yarn
