Winqu
A little wave of texture in every stitch. Winqu blends organic Tanguis Peruvian cotton with fine silk in a lightly spun, 2-ply yarn with a thick-and-thin feel.
Its wavy texture brings interest to garments and accessories, from a summer tee to a shawl or crochet tote. Machine-washable care makes your finished project practical, too.
