HiKoo Yarn - CoBaSi - White 01
Cobasi White 01 is a natural white. Natural white has a slightly warm or neutral undertone, giving it a softer and more welcoming appearance compared to crisp, pure white. It is not as cold as bright white and carries subtle hints of warmth, making it feel more natural and earthy. This gives it a gentle, organic feel, making it look more natural and earthy compared to pure, crisp whites.
HiKoo CoBaSi is a uniquely constructed yarn. It is composed of COtton, BAmboo, SIlk, and elastic nylon, which is where the name CoBaSi comes from. HiKoo CoBaSi is a great yarn choice if you're looking for a non-wool, breathable, stretchy, and durable yarn that works well for garments requiring elasticity, like socks and fitted clothing, while offering softness and comfort for sensitive skin.
This is a cable plied yarn. Each of the 3 plies that make up the HiKoo CoBaSi are comprised of 3 plies, 2 plies of tightly spun fiber, and 1 ply of loosely spun fiber. This gives this yarn excellent stretch, making it ideal for summer wear and form fitting garments. The yarn is also very round, giving superb stitch definition.
HiKoo CoBaSi is perfect for those with a wool sensitivity, a very breathable yarn, and the plant fiber content makes it light and easy to care for. The elasticity of the yarn makes it ideal for socks, and has been used for knitters to do all kinds of socks, from lace to cables to colorwork, to just plain vanilla. The easy care and stretch makes it perfect for projects for children as well.
