The addition of the bamboo to this yarn makes the yarn a crisp white colour with just a hint of shine. We recommend acid dyes for this yarn as the bamboo does not impact on the dye-ability using this type of dye. The colours appear bright, and it speckles well. The resulting fabric is super neat with lovely regular stitch definition, and just a little more drape than a 100% merino. This would make a nice summer garment yarn. It can also be used for socks but needs to be on a tight gauge. We recommend 2.25mm for socks.
