Description

Product information "Rowan Colourmix - 100 rainbow"

Rowan Colourmix yarn is a blend of cotton, wool and alpaca: muted shades sit against a cream background, with coloured flecks visible in the knitted fabric. Finished projects include jumpers and children’s cardigans.

Which season is a cotton, wool and alpaca blend suitable for?

The blend is suitable for cool weather; some people find that a jumper feels warm indoors when sitting still for long periods.

How do you match the tension in the pattern?

For stocking stitch and stranded colourwork, knitters adjust the tension to suit their project. Start with 5 mm circular needles; the guide tension is 16–17 stitches per 10 cm. Compare the yarn thickness and needles specified in the pattern with the product specifications, and adjust the needle size if they differ.

First make a tension square and wash it, then check the number of balls needed against the knitting pattern for your size. If you would like a different colour effect for your next project, take a look at other Rowan yarns.
