What can you knit or crochet with DRESSCODE yarn?

This variegated yarn is suitable for sweaters, cardigans, vests, scarves, hats and other autumn or winter accessories. Its expressive texture allows the colours to become the focal point, so an elaborate stitch pattern is not essential.

Fibre content and yarn characteristics

The fibre blend contains 50% cotton, 10% wool, 7% alpaca wool, 16% acrylic and 17% polyester. Cotton forms the largest share, while wool and alpaca complement the blend. Acrylic and polyester are also included; the full fibre proportions are shown in the product's additional information. You can also find this yarn in our cotton yarn and alpaca wool yarn categories.

Yarn length and recommended tools

Each ball weighs 50 g and contains approximately 115 m of yarn. The manufacturer recommends 4.5–5 mm knitting needles or a 4 mm crochet hook. Before starting a larger project, make a swatch: the chosen stitch pattern, tension and tool size can affect the fabric's drape and yarn consumption. Find suitable tools in our knitting needles and crochet hooks category.

Care

Hand-wash the finished item at no more than 30°C. Do not bleach or tumble-dry; if necessary, use steam only when ironing. Always consider the construction and shape of the chosen project.
