Product Description
Scheepjes Whirligigette 254 Ochre
Scheepjes Whirligigette 254 Ochre is the solid-color yarn that pairs with the generous Whirligig gradient cakes. The wool and alpaca blend gives your project a soft, warm look.
What makes this yarn special?
Whirligigette has the same composition and DK weight as Whirligig, but comes in a single color. This makes it easy to break up the color changes in a large cake with a solid, neutral section, or to finish the project with a matching border.
Ideas for Your Crochet and Knitting Projects
Perfect for a shawl with a solid-color border, a warm sweater, a cardigan, or a soft scarf. When making clothing, keep in mind the stitch pattern that results from the Needle Size you’re using.
With Ochre, you're choosing this color variation. The yellow hue adds a bright accent alongside Ecru, Green, or Dark Blue.
