Drops Belle

DROPS Belle is a blend of cotton, viscose and linen, the perfect yarn to use all year round.

Made only from vegetable fibers, DROPS Belle is the ideal option for vegans and people with wool sensibility.

Being DK weight, it is perfect to knit cardigans and pullovers, and its breathability makes it wonderful for summer tops as well.

The proportion of viscose and linen brings lightness to the blend, so we can get lightweight cotton garments. Also, each yarn ball goes a long way more than an other cotton yarn ball of the same weight.

DROPS Belle has a delicate texture with small bright shades that will bring a particular accent to your cotton garments.

This yarn has been made in UE and has the STANDARD 100 Class I certification by Oeko-Tex® (certificate number 09.HBG.68250). This certification warrants that there are no traces of any harmful chemicals in this thread and that it is completely safe for human use. Also, Class I calification is the highest one and that means that DROPS Belle is perfectly safe and suitable to knit baby garments.

To knit a long-sleeved sweater in size L you will need 8 yarn balls of DROPS Belle. Remember that this is only an indication and that the pattern, technique, stitch pattern and your tension gauge can modify this calculation. Make a tension gauge will give you a more accurate estimation.
