Mojave
Our love of cellulose-based fibers led to the development of Mojave. It is a versatile sport to DK weight yarn, consisting of five sets of very fine 2-plys. The result is a lightweight yarn that is strong and smooth with great stitch definition. This pima cotton and linen blend is as pleasant to knit with as it is to wear, and, as a bonus, it can be machine-washed!
Born from a passion for seasonless cellulose-based fibers, Mojave is a sport to DK weight yarn composed of five sets of finely spun 2-plys. This unique construction produces a lightweight yet robust yarn, ensuring excellent stitch definition.

Its versatility extends to easy machine-washing, making it a practical choice for a variety of projects. Experience the perfect marriage of strength and softness with Mojave, the ideal companion for your summer creations.

Am in the process of making a sweater of my own design...rather simple; garter stitch, long sleeve with drop shoulder. Am doing it on size 3 needles, so it is taking awhile. I chose this yarn for it's fiber combination...I like cotton and linen together. I like the feel of the fabric once it is knitted (or crocheted or woven). Am enjoying working with this yarn, and look forward to wearing the sweater, once it is completed.
