Cumulus Stripes from Juniper Moon Farm

True to its name, Cumulus, a 94% Israeli Mako Cotton and 6% nylon blend, has a velvety soft and fluffy texture (what you might expect from touching a cloud.)

Knitting with Cumulus is like wrapping yourself in a cozy embrace, making it ideal for garments and accessories worn close to the skin, but don’t let its softness deceive you. It holds up well through the wash. 

Despite its lofty appearance, Cumulus maintains excellent stitch definition, allowing intricate patterns and textures to shine through. Whether you're creating delicate lace motifs or simple stockinette stitches, Cumulus ensures that every stitch stands out beautifully.

Cumulus Stripes distinguishes itself with its self-striping feature, wherein the colors transition in a predetermined sequence as you knit or crochet. This characteristic yields striped patterns effortlessly, eliminating the need for yarn changes. Such yarn is ideal for creating visually captivating effects in projects like scarves, shawls, and other accessories.

Cumulus offers exceptional breathability, keeping you comfortable in a wide range of temperatures.
