Queensland Collection Cairns

Queensland Collection Cairns is a colorful [4] Medium Weight yarn with a distinctive tape construction that creates eye-catching texture and beautiful color play. Multiple shades are woven into each strand, adding depth and interest to every stitch without the need for complicated stitch patterns.
Made in Italy from 60% cotton and 40% acrylic, Cairns combines the cool comfort of cotton with the strength and easy care of acrylic. The flat tape construction produces lightweight garments with lovely drape, making it an excellentÂ
choice for warm-weather sweaters, tops, cardigans, shawls, and accessories.
Note: Market Square Bag image is of discontinued colors. The key to success on the Market Square Bag (Ravelry) is to use 2 extremely opposite shades.
