The beautiful drape of this yarn makes it perfect for shawls, accessories, garments and stylish home décor projects. Whirl has a unique twisted plied section, which gives it a characteristic *flavor* all of its own!

Each color change is carefully tied in an optimum way to ensure the knot can be discretely hidden within your stitches.
