Cosette
$38.00
Cosette is just so soft and luscious. A blend of superwash wool and cashmere/nylon, it has a beautiful luminous halo and a light airy drape. That’s why it’s just perfect for any DK sweater pattern or accessory.
The colors shown reflect the colors of Cosette, however, they are shown on a different base. Cosette is a plied yarn with a nice twist, as shown in the "group" shot.
