This DK weight plant fiber blend is smooth, soft, and cool to the touch, ideal for warm weather stitching. It’s been particularly popular for making Knitted Knockers – soft, comfortable, knit prosthetics for breast cancer patients. Since 2015, we’ve collected them here at our shop to donate to UNC’s cancer center a few times a year. Read more about the project on the Knitted Knockers website!
