Popcycle is comprised of 50% Bamboo and 50% Polyester from Recycled Plastic Bottles. That’s right, each 305 yard/100 gram hank recycles 2 plastic bottles! This environmentally friendly yarn is soft to the touch and feels cool even in the skein. Casting on is a breeze and knitting with it is a new and fun experience! Spun to please the most discriminating fiber artist, it is destined to work into some cool summer wear! When you get all the complements you will receive on your Popcycle garments, be sure and tell them you are wearing recycled plastic bottle yarn spun with bamboo! That should raise some eyebrows and the admiration of the environmentally conscious among us. This HiKoo yarn (click here) is a new idea with the future of our environment in mind.
Stay cool in the warm months with this fingering weight yarn! Perfect for summer wear. Cool to knit or crochet. Easy to care for too! Machine wash in cold water. We recommend laying flat to dry.
Popcycle comes in fun and fashion-forward colorways. The yarn knits up into a subtle tweed, thanks to the dye resistant Poly.
Whether you’re looking for a wool-free alternative, or a yarn with a smooth, cool hand, Popcycle lends itself well to not only knit projects, but crochet and weaving as well. Don't forget to check out our other Skacel yarns! (Click here) and here.
