YOYO COTTON

YoYo is cotton and viscose. It is a natural coloured cotton that has two strands
of viscose in a variety of colours wrapped around the cotton giving the yarn a
subtle colour and  texture.  Soft to work with and to wear.

Recommended Needle Size: 4mm (US 6)
Knits at 22 stitches in 4"
124 yards/114 meters in 50grams
Cotton wrapped with fine strands of viscose
NOTE: I put two strands of yoyo together and came up with a chunky weight cotton
-16 stitches in 4 inches knit with  5mm (US 8) needles. It looks and feels nice.
 

$4.95 a 100 gram skein

This is a email, printed with permission from a customer who bought Yoyo and wrote to say how much she liked it.
A while ago, I bought a kit from you that had Yo-Yo yarn in it. Instead of using the Yo-Yo for a sweater for me, I used it to knit the Elizabeth Zimmermann "Baby Surprise Jacket" for a friend of mine who was expecting a baby. I put some crazy eyelash yarn in here and there--the Yo-Yo had purples and pinks in it, so I used purple eyelash and pink eyelash--and the jacket came out looking terrific. Yo-Yo is terrific and perfect for a summertime baby! My friend just had the baby about ten days ago, I finished the Surprise Jacket just yesterday, and I can only hope the big baby girl won't be too big for the jacket.
Anyway, I wanted to let you know how great this yarn is, how much of a pleasure it was to work with, and how much I like it. I'm glad I still have some left over!
All the best, Hazel  Tallahassee, Florida, USA
