Truva Cashmere/Cotton
Good things come in small packages, and such is the case with this Italian-milled yarn, Truva. A 50/50 blend of luxurious cashmere and cotton, Truva is a standout yarn for every season. Both heathered and marled in appearance, we love this yarn for luxurious garments and accessories.
