Modern Cotton is a luscious blend of Pima cotton and Modal rayon to produce a yarn that is soft, with superior drape. It's beautifully twisted to showcase stitch patterns specially twisted to ensure stitch definition isn't sacrificed for a soft hand. Cameron has knitted a Sophie Scarf, and a knit tank.
Modern Cotton DK is on the list of approved yarns for the Knitted Knockers project. Knitted Knockers are special handmade breast prostheses for women who have had breast cancer and undergone mastectomy or lumpectomy. Traditional breast prosthetics can be hot, heavy and sticky. They typically require special bras or camisoles with pockets and can’t be worn for weeks after surgery. Knitted Knockers are soft, comfortable, beautiful and when placed in a regular bra they take the shape and feel of a real breast. They are adjustable, washable and can even be worn while swimming. Our special volunteer knitters provide these FREE to those requesting them.
