Product Information

Full details

James C. Brett Aurora DK in the Blush Notes colorway is an ideal choice for knitters and crocheters looking for a soft, variegated yarn that brings vibrant color to garments and accessories. Combining 80% acrylic and 20% wool, it offers a perfect balance of warmth and durability; however, crafters should note that the variegated nature of the colorway means individual projects will have unique color distributions that may not perfectly match product photos.

FAQs

What is the material composition?

It is a blend of 80% acrylic and 20% wool.

How many meters are in one ball?

Each 100g ball provides approximately 345 meters (377 yards).

Can I wash this in a machine?

Yes, it is machine washable at 30 degrees Celsius.

What needle size is recommended?

4mm needles are recommended for the standard tension of 22 stitches and 28 rows.

Is this suitable for a baby blanket?

Due to the soft blend, it is generally suitable, though ensure the recipient does not have an allergy to the 20% wool content.

Troubleshooting

Uneven color distribution in project

This is a characteristic of variegated yarn. If you need a specific pattern match, try 'alternating balls' by knitting two rows from one ball and two rows from a second ball.

Yarn splitting during knitting

Ensure you are using the correct needle size (4mm) and check for any rough spots on the needle tips that may catch the yarn plies.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Excellent yardage per 100g ball
Soft texture suitable for garments
Machine washable for easy maintenance
Vibrant, multi-tonal aesthetic
Great value for an acrylic-wool blend

Cons

Variegated color repeat can be unpredictable
Wool content may not be suitable for those with extreme wool sensitivities
Limited to gentle 30-degree wash cycles

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To begin, ensure your tension matches the recommended 22 stitches by 28 rows using 4mm needles or the equivalent crochet hook size. It is recommended to perform a swatch test before starting your main project to account for individual tension variations.

For care, your finished projects are machine washable at 30 degrees Celsius. Avoid harsh chemicals or high-heat tumble drying to preserve the integrity of the wool fibers. Always lay flat to dry to prevent the garment from stretching out of shape.
