Scheepjes Whirl - All Colours - Product Description
This delicious gradient yarn from Scheepjes comes in 60 scrumptious colour ways and is made from a beautifully soft cotton-acrylic blend to produce projects that are lightweight and breathable. Unlike other gradient yarns, Whirl has a generous twist to enable speed while working the yarn and to help prevent splitting. The beautiful drape of this yarn makes it perfect for shawls, accessories, garments, and stylish home projects. Whirl has a unique twisted plied section, which gives it a characteristic flavour all of its own!
Make sure to check out The Aurora Collection: 4 Stunning shades of Scheepjes Whirl, based on the beautiful & mesmerising natural phenomena of The Northern Lights. Each cake in the Aurora collection starts with the deep grey of a winter sky which gently turns into an Aurora colour. These yarn cakes work independently as all Whirl cakes do but are fabulous to use in combination with each other as the colours have been carefully chosen to work together to produce a magical colour palette for larger projects.
Scheepjes Whirl matches perfectly with Scheepjes Whirlette.
Please note:
Irregularities and fuzz in your Whirl thread are called fuzzbuzzes and are characteristic of the Whirl. A Whirl is spun in such a way that you have six individual threads. During a colour change, one thread (colour) is replaced by another thread (colour). To handle a fuzzbuzz, you can wet your fingertips and smooth the fuzzbuzz between your fingers, this way, the fuzzbuzz will not be visible in your project.
To get a quick crafting start and avoid tangled centres, please start from the outside of your cake. Should you wish to start with the inside shade, please wind your yarn to reverse the colours.
