Named after the concentric circles that this cake of yarn so closely resembles, these color gradients were carefully designed by HiKoo's team of color specialists. Concentric is made from four non-plied strands, which create the distinctive color change. This yarn is perfect for shawls and stunning in sweaters so don’t limit yourself to what Concentric can be used for!
