Scheepjes Bamboo Soft in Smooth Cocoa

Scheepjes Bamboo Soft is a fingering weight bamboo and cotton blend that feels very soft, cool, and smooth with a gentle sheen. The plied strand works up into lightweight fabric with beautiful drape and clear stitch definition, so it is especially nice for lacey tops, summer sweaters, baby pieces, shawls, and scarves when you want plant based fibers that still feel a little luxe. The yarn is made from 100 percent plant fibers and produced using recycled wastewater, making it a great eco-friendly choice.
