Lang Yarns cotton wool: a lightweight yarn for comfortable knits

Lang Yarns cotton yarn appeals to anyone looking for a natural, soft, and comfortable yarn. Unlike warmer animal fibers, cotton offers lightness and breathability, making it an ideal choice for spring and summer and for projects designed for sensitive skin.

Why choose cotton for knitting?

Cotton is a plant fiber known for its flexibility and ability to absorb moisture. When knitted, it can be used to create garments that retain their shape while remaining comfortable. Easy to care for, it is generally machine washable, making it particularly practical for everyday items.

Tips for knitting cotton

Cotton tends to be less elastic than wool. For a flawless result, be sure to choose the right needles and regularly monitor your tension. Focus on simple stitches that will highlight the texture of the yarn, and remember to wash your swatch before starting to check its behavior.
