Ashford Yoga Yarn Ne 8/2 - 200g
Looking for warmth without the weight? Ashford’s Yoga Yarn combines the softness of cotton with a fine nylon core, creating a yarn that’s light, strong, and delightfully elastic. It’s the perfect choice for weaving or knitting garments that drape beautifully, keep their shape, and feel effortless to wear.
Heavy, stiff yarns can hold back your creativity, but the right fibre makes all the difference. This core-spun cotton gives you freedom to create with ease — blending a strong, elastic nylon core with soft, dyeable cotton for comfort, resilience, and versatility.
The result is fabric that’s light yet full-bodied, draping beautifully while holding its shape wash after wash. From jackets and scarves to homewares, every piece feels effortless to make, delightful to wear, and simply stunning to behold.
Care Instructions: machine wash warm, tumble dry at a low setting, do not bleach, warm iron
