Scheepjes Whirl

Wrapped in playful novelty yarn bands inspired by celebratory cake wrappers, Whirl Birthday Cakes are a fun and collectible tribute to a decade of colour, creativity and community. The delicious gradient yarn from Scheepjes. Made from a blend of 60% Cotton / 40% Acrylic to produce projects that are lightweight and breathable. Unlike other gradient yarns, Whirl has a generous twist to enable speed while working the yarn and to help prevent splitting. The beautiful drape of this yarn makes it perfect for shawls, accessories, garments and stylish home décor projects. Whirl has a unique twisted plied section, which gives it a characteristic ‘flavor’ all of its own! The Extra Large yarn cake holds an enormous 1000 meters of softly color changing yarn, more than enough for a large shawl or wrap. Each color change is carefully tied in an optimum way to ensure the join can be discreetly hidden within your stitches. Fingering, 215 grams, 1090 yds 25 stitches x 44 rows to 10 cm on 3.5mm needles
