Terrazzo by Scheepjes : 712 Sassolino

We're thrilled to introduce Terrazzo, Scheepjes' first fully recycled fibre yarn, and this gorgeous shade, 712 Sassolino. This warm and inviting yarn boasts some seriously impressive eco credentials.

Crafted from a premium blend, Terrazzo comprises 70% Recycled Mulesing Free Wool and 30% Recycled Viscose. It’s breathable, feels wonderful against the skin, and drapes beautifully. To put your mind at rest, it also carries the OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certification, so you can be confident it's free from harmful chemicals. Jolly good!

This felted tweed yarn has a truly luxurious look and feel. The lightweight nature of the yarn makes it perfect for creating garments that are warm without being bulky. The subtle speckled colour effect, achieved by twisting fibres of contrasting and complementary colours, is what makes this yarn so special. It's reminiscent of classic terrazzo floors, adding a touch of retro charm to your crafting.

Terrazzo is versatile enough for all sorts of knitting and crochet projects. Think cosy sweaters, stylish cardigans, fashionable accessories, and beautiful homeware pieces. Whether you're a seasoned crafter or just starting out, we think you'll find Terrazzo a joy to work with.

It's also perfect for colourwork. Why not experiment with combining it with other yarns? We particularly love it paired with our Kid Silk Mohair for a touch of added softness and luxury.

Here's what you need to know:

• Recommended hook / needle size: 4.00mm
• Gauge: 27 stitches x 35 rows to 10cm in stocking stitch
• 50g (175m) ball

Looking after your makes:

To keep your Terrazzo creations looking their best, we recommend a gentle HAND WASH to prevent further felting.

We can't wait to see what you create with Terrazzo! Happy crafting!
