Mondial Basic Lux Stampe Baby is a 50g ball of Mercerized Cotton. This means that after spinning the cotton has been placed into an acid bath. This gives the cotton strength & its gorgeous lustre look. It also has a lovely pattern effect created by the striping of the wool. It is great for both knitting & crochet projects & is best worked on 3-4mm hooks/needles. It is approx 120 metres in length. The wool is machine washable on a 40° wash.
