Kelbourne Woolens Skipper Trunk Show

Get ready for summer with the latest trunk show from Kelbourne Woolens. This collection showcases Skipper, a fingering-weight Tanguis cotton yarn. While Pima is a very popular cotton variety frequently used by luxury producers, Tanguis is more environmentally friendly, super soft, and resilient. Grown in Peru, Tanguis cotton is absorbent and moisture-wicking and resistant to pilling and wrinkling.
