Scheepjes Whirlette is exactly the same yarn as its bigger brother, Whirl, only this fingering weight option comes in single colour cakes only. It’s a glorious vegan friendly yarn made from a blend of 60% cotton & 40% acrylic which knits up to produce a lovely lightweight and breathable fabric with wonderful drape. A perfect choice for all kinds of knitting and crochet projects such as shawls, sweaters, cardigans and accessories.
Machine washable

Each 100g cake of Scheepjes Whirlette holds an enormous 455m of yarn which lends itself nicely to some wonderful, yet supremely affordable handknit garments. It’s also a perfect match to its big brother Whirl, a beautiful gradient yarn. These single colour balls have been chosen to compliment the fun colour palettes of Whirl to give 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. The possibilities are endless!

For UK delivery, we use Royal Mail’s Tracked 24 and Tracked 48 services. Provided goods are in stock, every effort will be made to dispatch your order the next day during shop opening hours, 1-3 days when the shop is closed.

To give you the best results we always check the dye lot numbers match within each order.  If for any reason it is not possible to complete your order using only one dye lot we will contact you as soon as possible.
