Summer Doubleknitting Yarns                                         In all my experience people knit with thick heavy chunkies as much in summer as they do with the finer cottons in winter. Nevertheless cottons and their ilke still tend to be classed as summertime yarns.     Luxury Soft Cotton from Sirdar This is a lightweight cotton that has been brushed to make it softer and smoother as opposed to the old mercerised look which was cold, heavy and shiney. Mercerised by the way means the yarn has been passed through an incredibly high temperature gas.   Luxury Soft Cotton produces a very round yarn in its numerous plys and as such gives a good clean stitch definition     We tend to stock around 9 colours at any given time 50g, 95m, £2.70       Kon-tiki from Stylecraft Again this is a soft cotton mixed with acrylics to make it go a little further in the knitting and in the purse. Around 9 colours again 50g, 101m, £1.99       Sirrocco from Stylecraft a variagated gimp (wavy) linen and cotton mix. This makes for quite a heavy yarn but this makes it have a good drape aswell. around 9 colours once more 50g, 90m, £2.60       A summer display of summer yarns The garment is in Luxury Soft Cotton. Many Summer patterns for this type of yarn do tend to be body hugging but it will knit to any standard DK pattern - i.e. 22 stitches to 28 rows       Please ensure you check through all our Doubleknitting pages including Sublime
