Product description:
This blend of 70% bamboo 30% Organic cotton makes a lovely yarn for next-to-skin woven fabrics.
This yarn weaves at the same sett as 8/2 cotton. The bamboo provides shine plus lots of extra softness and drape. Feels soft against the skin and yet is strong enough for daily use. This is an excellent choice for weaving lightweight fabrics.
