Scheepjes Stone Washed XL is quite an intriguing yarn that deserves a space in your yarn stash. It’s extremely similar to its sister yarn, River Washed XL, but rather than coloured, the Stone Washed XL has a pale cotton inner core surrounded by a coloured haze. This combination brings the colour palette down a notch to give a subtle, muted mottled effect.

Vegan

Machine washable

Scheepjes Stone Washed XL is an aran weight yarn that makes easy work of larger jumpers and cardigans. It’s extremely soft to the touch but, thanks to the high cotton content, very tough and hard wearing. It knits up to create a soft and beautifully textured fabric with a gorgeous depth of colour and excellent stitch definition. A vegan-friendly alternative with a wool like quality, its popularity is not surprising and we love to use it regularly in our workshops here at Baa.

Scheepjes Stone Washed is also available as a 4-ply, so you can use it for your finer knits too.

Love this yarn? Take a look at Scheepjes River Washed XL. It has all the characteristics of its sister yarn, but has a coloured inner core that yields fantastically vibrant results. Combine the two for unique yet beautiful knitting and crochet projects.
