Cahlista - Who’s the fairest of them all?

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.

Cahlista comes in 109 shades with recognizable shade numbers, to enable projects with a combination of yarn weights but the same shades, for example using Scheepjes Catona, Sweet Treat and Sugar Rush.
