Painted Cotton and Acrylic Blend Yarn newly introduced for spring of 2021 by Araucania Yarns. The sophisticated color stories and subtle speckling makes each colorway a design statement with little need to do anything more than enjoy the self patterning. This yarn strikes a balance between self striping and self patterning, sort of taking on a bit of both characteristics. The yarn has a beautiful airy drape, yet is warm enough for a cooler spring or fall day. Try out Papagayo on your next project!
