River Washed is a uniquely structured yarn, just like Scheepjes Stone Washed. Unlike its sister yarn which features a white inner core surrounded by a coloured haze; the main colour of River Washed is lifted with a coloured inner core which produces a tactile knitted fabric that is full of depth with its two toned halo.
Vegan
Machine washable

Named after famous rivers throughout the world, River Washed is a wool free, and therefore vegan friendly, alternative for your winter knitting and crochet projects. Comprising 78% cotton and 22% acrylic, this 4-ply yarn is breathable, long lasting and has a wool like quality that will carry you through the seasons. Soft, textured and super strong, the fibre also resists pilling and leaves you with a garment that is easy to care for. 

Can be easily combined with Stone Washed for unique and expressive results. 

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.
