Each 215g cake of Scheepjes Whirl holds an enormous 1000m of yarn which gently changes colour, giving you more than enough yarn for a large shawl or wrap with beautiful drape. Unlike other gradient yarns, Whirl has a generous twist which adds strength and prevents splitting whilst working up. Each coloured yarn is expertly tied to ensure a discreet colour change that hides away within the stitches.
Scheepjes Whirl is also a perfect match to its smaller sister 4-ply yarn, Whirlette. These single colour balls are a perfect match to the inner and outer colours of the Whirl cakes giving you the ability to extend a gradient project, whether that’s adding a ribbing at the bottom of a knitted sweater, or adding a border to a baby blanket.
