About this yarn
Berroco Tillie is a luxurious, hand‑dyed yarn made from a sustainable blend of pima cotton and cupro—a silk‑like fiber derived from cotton waste. Its lightweight chainette construction delivers exceptional drape, softness, and structure.
Spun in Peru, Berroco Tillie offers generous yardage, a smooth breathable texture, and lasting durability. The cotton‑cupro blend has a subtle sheen, ideal for summer tops and accessories. Best of all, it’s machine washable.
Note: As a hand‑dyed yarn, color may vary. Alternate skeins every two rows to ensure even color distribution.
