Queensland Collection Cairns in color Redcliffe 62
Queensland Collection's Cairns yarn is a distinctive blend of 60% cotton and 40% acrylic, offering both softness and durability. This worsted-weight yarn features a unique tape and chainette construction, providing excellent drape and a textured appearance.
Mostly shades of pale to bold pinks with highlights purples. These vibrant shades are ideal for bold beach or grocery totes. The cotton-acrylic blend is lightweight yet strong, blending color, texture, and function for stylish, practical projects—perfect for carrying anything from towels to groceries.
Cairns is extremely popular in Sharyn Anhalt's Market Square. Her bag is knitted in 2 different and very contrasting colors. You can see the Market Square pattern on Ravelry. This is a great gift. It is an enjoyable project to work on and the pattern repeat is only 4 rows.
