Powdered Sugar - 100% Organic GOTS Certified Cotton/ Fingering Weight Base

 This lovely color is on our 100% Organic GOTS Certified Cotton, Fingering Weight base. It has 4 plies and there are approximately 435 yards of yarn per skein. The Global Organic Textile Standard is the leading standard for fibers in the world.  It has very high standards at every stage of the supply chain. 

The GOTS ensures that everything from the processing of the fiber, to the labeling and to the treatment of textile workers, is done in an ethical and a sustainable manner. 

Our 100% Organic GOTS Certified Cotton base is good for you and for the planet. There are no dyes or bleach used in the processing of this yarn, which ensures that the fiber stays both soft and luxurious. 

Organic GOTS Certified Fingering Cotton is very soft and is good for making everything from baby garments, blankets, sweaters and home accessories.  (Please keep in mind that due to the natural state of this yarn, you should expect 5 - 10% shrinkage.  Please consider this when purchasing your quantity.) 

It is important to note, that as with all Organic Cotton, there are small brown flecks throughout the skein, most of which can simply be pulled right off.  This is a part of the natural cotton fiber and is absolutely normal, due to the fact that there is no bleach used. 

We suggest using a US  1 - 3 Knitting Needle and a size B - E Crochet Hook. (This is only a suggestion, everyone’s tension varies, please use what is the most comfortable for you!)

All of Sand Castles and Sea Shells Yarns are certified mulesing free.

As with all naturally hand dyed yarns, we recommend hand washing your finished piece,  using a PH Balanced Soap such as Mrs. Myer’s Clean Day Lavender Laundry.
