Mitto's notes

Long-staple Egyptian cotton, fine and with a sheen: the DROPS summer yarn, cool, hard-wearing and in many colours.

What it's for

Summer tops and jumpers, baby clothes, amigurumi and lacy crochet. Cotton does not stretch like wool, so stitches stay very crisp.

How many balls

Adult summer top, size M: 5 to 7 balls. Small amigurumi: 1. These are rough figures: always check the pattern.

Pairs with

It belongs to group A, like Baby Merino, Alpaca and Fabel. For a slightly warmer cotton garment, Cotton Merino is the alternative.

Care

Machine wash at 40 °C on a gentle cycle and dry flat. Cotton is heavy when wet: do not hang it to dry, or it will lose its shape.

About this yarn

DROPS Safran is spun from combed, long, Egyptian cotton fibers that are twisted together in pairs, before being twisted together again. This method results in extra durable garments with great surface properties!

DROPS Safran has been on the market for many years and it's a very popular choice because of its shine, softness and many beautiful colors. The yarn can be used in projects for all ages, specially summer wear, baby clothes and accessories. Have you tried it yet?
