A smooth blend of cotton and rayon, Modern Cotton has the perfect twist to insure stitch definition isn't sacrificed for a soft hand. Cast on your new favorite summer top, airy cardigan, or a soft baby blanket perfect even for little ones born in the hottest months. Fabric created from this yarn will be soft and breathable from the pima cotton, and have lightweight strength, a soft sheen, lovely drape, and be cool to the touch from the modal rayon. With 27 colors available, you can select the color palette that is right for you, whether it is sophisticated neutrals, cheerful brights, or something in-between.
