Terrazzo by Scheepjes : 731 Millennio

Meet Terrazzo by Scheepjes in shade 731 Millennio – a yarn that's as kind to the planet as it is gorgeous to work with! We're incredibly excited about this one; it’s Scheepjes’ first fully recycled fibre yarn.

Crafted from a premium blend of 70% Recycled Mulesing Free Wool and 30% Recycled Viscose, Terrazzo boasts fantastic eco credentials. Plus, it holds the OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certification, so you can be sure it's safe and free from harmful chemicals. What's not to love?

This felted tweed yarn has such a luxurious look and feel. It drapes beautifully, feels wonderfully lightweight, and provides cosy warmth. The subtly speckled colour effect, which gives the yarn its name and is inspired by terrazzo floors, comes from twisting fibres of contrasting and complementary colours together. A really clever touch, we think!

Terrazzo is incredibly versatile and ideal for a wide variety of knitting and crochet projects, big or small. Think clothing like jumpers and cardigans, fashionable accessories, or beautiful homeware pieces. It’s also perfect for projects using multiple colours and can be combined effectively with other yarns – our Kid Silk Mohair is a fantastic pairing.

Care instructions: To keep your finished projects looking their best, we recommend HAND WASHING to prevent further felting.
