Creamy/ Milk Fiber Plus Cotton/ Assorted Colors1

We were able to get some quite unique yarn to try out.

From Kollage Yarns, here is Creamy, a fingering weight yarn of 80% milk and 20% cotton.

I got very curious and went onto Google to find out more about how milk becomes fiber. There is quite a bit of interesting information, but what I particularly want to share is this:

"The producing process has no effect on environment and formaldehyde in the products is zero. So milk fiber can be considered as ‘green product’.

"Milk fiber is a new synthetic fiber, which adopts milk protein as main material and high-technical process. Milk fiber has the advantages natural fiber combined with synthetic fiber. Milk fiber PH is 6.8 which is the same to human skin. Milk fiber contains seventeen amino-acids and natural anti-bacterial rate is above eighty percent. So milk fiber has sanitarian function."

In fact, one site said that wearing fabric made of milk fiber was extremely good for the skin and likened wearing milk fiber to bathing in milk, as Cleopatra was said to have done!

Creamy comes in 50 gram skeins, with 200 yards per skein. It can be used in any design calling for fingering weight yarn. It doesn't need any special care beyond what you would do for any fine yarn -- hand wash and dry flat.

We started with four rich and deep almost-tropical colors to try out. There are only two currently left in stock.

What we have right now is:

Curacao Blue and

Tobago Purple.

We think you'll be delighted with these!
