ITO Mizu

ITO Mizu is an untwisted cotton yarn. In the dye bath, the strand absorbs the color only superficialy. The color is fixed only slightly afterwards. While knitting, the color starts to break open and the raw white cotton beneath becomes visible. The color rubs off a little while knitting and bleeds out slightly during washing. This effect is intended; the garment acquires a used look.
ITO Mizu is washable. We recommend hand wash, separate from other textiles. Available in 4 colors.

Composition: 100% Cotton
Yardage (Meter / Yards): 25 g ~ 85 m / 93 yds per ball
Recommended needle size: 4 - 8 (3,3 - 4,5 mm) / US 3 - 7
Care instruction: hand wash; please wash separately, color bleeds out slightly.

Tips:
The yarn has a slight bias. For straight pieces, you should only use well balanced knit-purl stitch patterns (garter, rib, moss).
