Dive into your next delicate project with our Mercerised Cotton Lace Weight Crochet Yarn in Smokey Blue. This yarn is perfect for crafting intricate lace, lightweight garments, and exquisite accessories.
Each 50g ball is packed with a generous 260 metres of the softest, most lustrous 100% mercerised cotton. The mercerisation process not only enhances the yarn's inherent sheen but also strengthens the fibres, resulting in a durable and beautifully draping finished piece. The smokey blue shade is a wonderful cool pastel and will complement a huge range of patterns.
Why Choose Mercerised Cotton?
We just adore working with mercerised cotton, and we think you will too! Here's why:
- Enhanced Sheen: The mercerisation gives the cotton a beautiful, subtle lustre that elevates your finished projects.
- Increased Strength: This process strengthens the cotton fibres, making your creations more durable and long-lasting.
- Improved Dye Uptake: Mercerised cotton absorbs dye more readily, resulting in richer, more vibrant colours that hold their depth over time.
- Reduced Shrinkage: Projects made with mercerised cotton are less prone to shrinking after washing, maintaining their shape and size.
Imagine creating a delicate shawl, a charming doily, or a breathable summer top with this gorgeous yarn. The possibilities are truly endless, and we are certain you will enjoy every moment of crafting with it.

For best results, we recommend using a 1.75mm to 2mm needle or hook. Aim for a tension of approximately 37 stitches and 17 rows over a 10cm square. However, do remember to always adjust your tension to suit your individual crafting style and the requirements of your pattern.
We believe that every stitch tells a story, and we are thrilled to provide you with the materials to create something truly special. Happy crafting!
