Berrocco Bozzolo is here! Striping cotton for spring

We have a brand new yarn from shop favorite Berroco, and this one is really special. You have been asking for a wool free striping option for awhile, and we are excited to have found one! Berroco Bozzolo is a 100% cotton direct from Italy, in a dazzling rainbow of solids and self-striping colors. We are so thrilled about all the design choices the self-striping colors bring us — from granny squares to baby blankets and more. It has a beautiful sheen and the softness we crave from cotton.
