Materials

Yarn: Sirdar Loveful 100% Recycled Acrylic in Double Knitting weight. This innovative yarn is made from GRS-certified waste sourced from acrylic fibre production, combining sustainability with the soft, reliable, and machine-washable qualities Sirdar is known for. Because each batch of recycled fibres is unique, shade variations may occur between dye lots, making it important to purchase sufficient yarn from the same batch for color consistency throughout the project.
