BC Garn Alba GOTS
The softest, gentlest cotton; an absolute pleasure to knit with
I could not put down the blouse I was knitting: it felt so lovely in my hands. None of the usual dry feel of cotton; it is very silky to the touch. I used 3.5 mm needles for the blouse.

Very pleasant, ‘silky’ cotton.
It knits up evenly and is economical.
For a sailor collar, I used one ball of the main colour and just a little of the contrasting colour.
3 mm needles.

The yarn was excellent for crochet: a real pleasure to work with. It is mostly matte with a slight silky sheen. The collar turned out supple while still holding its shape well.
I crocheted the collar at a Hollywool workshop. Thank you very much for a great workshop and a lovely time 👍

A substantial yarn: worked double on 4.5 mm needles, it creates a textured, chunky fabric and knits up quickly) The yarn does not stretch, and the dimensions do not change after washing. A little goes a long way.

A great yarn for summer! It makes a fabric that is not thick, but soft and flowing. The gauge hardly changes after washing and blocking, and it feels even lovelier.

I do not generally enjoy knitting with cotton and do not even know why I decided to give it another try. But I really liked this yarn: it is soft, pleasant to the touch and shows lace patterns beautifully (I made a lace cardigan). For size 46, I used 8 balls in colour 07 Vanilla.

I liked the yarn. It became soft after washing and blocking and is easy to knit with. I do not know how it wears yet: I got the size wrong and my child has not grown into it)

This is wonderful yarn. I tried it and have no regrets. It is very soft and pleasant to the touch, and great to wear. The colour matched what I expected.

I am so happy with this purchase! The yarn certainly feels lovely: such soft cotton. The Tiffany colour is even prettier in real life than in the picture. I am going to knit a summer top. I saw stitch patterns for it on your Instagram pages. Thank you!
