Berroco Modern Cotton is a lovely worsted weight yarn that's perfect for your projects! Made of 60% pima cotton and 40% modal rayon, this soft to the touch yarn knits up quickly into gorgeous wraps, cowls, sweaters, and more. Modern Cotton comes in Berroco's fantastic color range with options for any project desires!
I've knit two summer sweaters from this yarn a cardigan and a pullover. The yarn has great stitch definition. Both sweaters have intricate stitch patterns and they turned out beautiful.
I would rate this as a light worsted - I am working with US 7 needles on a baby blanket. The cotton blend has a lovely sheen and drape - not much stretch. It's a bit splitty, but cotton often is. Love the vibrant colors!!
