KittyBea by the Sea: Caspersen

KittyBea, by the Sea is a new Collection of coastal inspired colorways. Inspiration is taken from scenic beaches, coastal landmarks, and local wildlife- including gorgeous shells found whilst beachcombing. The first location of inspiration is (naturally): Florida!

A wonderful blend of Organic Cotton and Linen, this is a multi-season yarn. It is smooth with beautiful structure and softens more over time. Garments and accessories made with this yarn will be favorites worn over and over again. The Cotton/Linen blend has wonderful stitch definition, giving your project striking details. Caspersen is also perfect for the weavers out there!
