Classic Elite Provence
$12.50/skein, plus $1 shipping

This is our all-purpose cotton: women's t-shirts, baby blankets, a strand of something non-wool to fill in a novelty-yarn scarf, you name it. It's 100% Egyptian cotton, mercerised for luster and softness, with a cable twist that resists splitting and shows stitch patterns beautifully.

The color selection shows its various purposes: there are subtle neutrals, crayon brights, and everything in between. The gauge is from 5 to 5.5 sts per inch on US #5 or #6 needles; each 100-g skein has 205 yards.

Note: There are new and discontinued colors left and right with this yarn. We have pictures of MANY colors but you will find only the colors we have in stock in the drop-down menu. Any questions about discontinued colors? Call us and we will do everything we can to help you find your color at 215-977-9276.
