Loop-d-Loop's fabulous "Birch" from Teva Durham's fiber collection is a wonderful 6-ply, cotton/silk blend. The result is a classic spring/summer yarn with a modern twist because the silk fiber absorbs the color differently than the cotton and gives subtle flecks. This tweedy, rustic effect combined with its elegant color palette makes "Birch" the perfect choice for worsted-weight garments both dressy & casual. Beautifully crafted in Italy of 90% cotton & 10% silk.
