Softball Cotton Cone Yarn

Hello Beverly - thank you for the color suggestion. This yarn recommends dry cleaning to avoid shrinkage and possible pilling caused by a regular washer & dryer.

Hello J - the cone yarns from Silk City Fibers are geared toward weaving and machine knitting, which don't use the same gauge measuring systems as hand knitting and crochet do. Since it's classed as a bulky weight yarn you could use anywhere from a US 10 - 11 knitting needle, or a K, L, or M crochet hook.

Hi Carol - this yarn comes with more yardage on a cone (630 yards) than in a typical skein, so the price reflects the quantity of yarn.

Hi Marilyn - since this yarn recommends dry cleaning we wouldn't suggest it for something that gets as much use as a dish towel, but items like placemats or table runners would be fine.
