Information
Cahlista means ‘beautiful one’ and Cahlista definitely is! This 100% un-mercerized cotton aran weight yarn has an optimised twist to reduce splitting whilst maintaining a soft drape. This yarn is double gassed, this means it is passed over a naked flame to singe away any random fibres, not once, but twice… creating a super smooth yarn that glides on the hook or needles. Being EN71-3 certified, it can be used to create wonderful projects that are certified safe to use by those with sensitive skin such as babies or children.
Cahlista comes in 109 shades with recognisable shade numbers, to enable projects with a combination of yarn weights but the same shades, for example using Scheepjes Catona uses the same numbers/names.
You can find patterns for this yarn on the Scheepjes Website here.
