Friends Wheel – Buckthorn (29)

Friends Wheel is a lovely combination of the softest cotton with the lightest acrylic yarn. Cotton brings strength, softness, and durability, whereas acrylic contributes to giving the yarn vibrant colors and a nice feel to the touch. Friends Wheel is made out of 4 threads and will create a gorgeous drape when worked up. You can now unleash your creativity by planning fabulous lace projects such as tops, cardigans, shawls, scarves, etc. If you prefer a fuller look, you can always stick to the recommended needle/hook size or even double the thread up. Up for experimenting? We recommend pairing Friends Wheel with a fluffy thread of our Friends Kid Silk , it will do wonders and give the garment a hint of luxury and extravagance. This yarn is machine washable at 40°C (104°F), which makes it perfect for everyday use and suitable for children’s garments as well. The whole range comes with our “easy start” pull-out tab, making it much easier to find the beginning of your skein. It is time to get creative with our Friends Wheel . The yarn is OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certified (no. 2276-367). Find more information about the certification at: https://www.oeko-tex.com/en/ Pro tip: Friends Wheelis a very flexible yarn that can be knitted tightly with 2,5 mm needles (US 1.5), so you get a knitting gauge of approx. 28 stitches. You can also knit it looser with 4 mm needles (US 6) and get approx. 22 stitches for e.g. extra soft shawls and scarves. Thus, you can experiment with the knitting gauge and easily vary it with various needle sizes depending on the project you are about to start. NB: Friends Wheel and Friends Wheel Multi will never match up 100%, since they are dyed in separate dye lots.
