Our Cotton Pure On A Cone takes our much-loved, 100% organically grown Cotton Pure and does just that, puts it on a cone! This amazing cotton yarn feels lovely in the hand and is wonderfully soft and supple to knit.

About This Yarn

• These discontinued colors are 40% off while supplies last... And be sure to also check out the entire Cotton Pure On A Cone collection for all the rest of the colors!

• Cotton Pure is unmercerized, which means it skipped out on avoidable chemical treatments and also that it's extra soft and absorbent, with a pleasing matte finish.
• A sport-weight yarn, its multi-strand structure is ten plies that are actually plied strands themselves, resulting in an incredibly strong and even yarn that creates a smooth stockinette, as well as beautiful stitch definition for stitch patterns from simple seed stitch to elaborate cables.
• Machine wash- and dry-able Cotton Pure is a practical (and lovely!) yarn for housewares and baby clothes, and it's gorgeous for lightweight blankets, wraps, and sweaters, too.
• Each cone includes 1,000 grams of yarn... That's a whopping 2,789 yards! This is great for big knitting and crochet projects, like sweaters and blankets, because you won't have to wind your yarn into balls, and you'll have way fewer ends to weave in. It's also perfect for weavers who love a lot of yardage!
• Want a couple of skeins for a contrast color? Our 100-gram Cotton Pure skeins come in all the same colors, so you can mix and match. Explore our inspiring collection of (mostly free) knitting patterns for Cotton Pure in skeins and on a cone!
• Please note that 100-gram skeins of Cotton Pure and Cotton Pure On A Cone do not share dye lots. If you need more than one Cone and one dye lot, consider getting all 100-gram skeins.
