This yarn is taking the place of the old flamme which had no organic or fair trade verification source.
Pakucho 100% Color Grown Flamme Worsted Organic Cotton Yarn
(Vegan)
Each hank is 50g. &73 yds.
The average needle used is #8 - #10 (4.5 - 3.5 sts)
= 1").
This yarn knits up soft & slightly chunky on a #10, BUT #8- 9 is a more normal worsted gauge. The yarn is made up of 2 roving
strands twisted together to form a thick and thin alternating
texture. Because this is color~grown yarn it can sometimes shrink
between 10-15% in length. If you are unsure, I would launder a
sample first when doing a project. The shrinkage only occurs when
you machine dry it and the color gets deeper the more times you
machine dry it. If you want the color to stay the same with no
shrinkage, either machine wash or hand wash in cool water and lay
flat to dry.
