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!

Love this stuff!

Spectacular colors and a slightly crunchy (but not scratchy) hand make this my go-to yarn for cabled items. I honestly want something I every color…

Germantown Wool

I like using Germantown wool for my two color knitting projects. It is feels sturdy but not scratchy. The colors look great together.

Beautiful yarn

Lovely halo. Anticipating wearing my hat in the cold of winter. Even in the South we need warm wool hats in beautiful colors

Pretty and soft

I’ve only used superwash wools before and was shocked at how soft this wool is. The weathered color is absolutely beautiful and I love how it seems to change color in the light. I can’t wait to finish my project!

Best Tweed Yarn

This yarn has lots of tweed specks, but is still soft. I have made several hats with this yarn and they come out really beautiful.

Norwegian sweater

I purchased this yarn to use for a Norwegian cardigan sweater. The colors were perfect and it is a lovely yarn to work with. The yarn arrived in a timely manner.

In love with this yarn

This is the second time I've ordered Scout. I fell in love instantly. It knits up so pretty and soft. The only downside is that I'm in the Netherlands and import duties and shipping are high, but you best believe I'm already saving up to order some more!

I need a dependable worsted yarn for some gift hats. Germantown never disappoints. Fun to knit and comfortable to wear.

Color cards

I’m a complete Camper fan girl, and love swatching and planning colorwork sweaters and accessories. Having the physical samples of the yarn is awesome to support color decisions! Plus, they are just really fun to play with.

Love knows no bounds

The yarn is great. The colour work well with each other. Doing a shawl using 7 colours . I have purchased the yarn a few times. A large plus I have not encountered the yarn to knots in them on the whole which is more then I can say for a lot of the yarn I work with.
