Scheepjes Stone Washed XXL 863 Carnelian - red yarn

What makes this yarn special for your creative process?

Do you often feel that larger projects, like a blanket, take too long to finish? Scheepjes Stone Washed XXL solves this dilemma, as its thickness allows you to achieve stunning results in a fraction of the time compared to lighter-weight yarns. The structure of the yarn is also unique: colourful and fluffy acrylic fibres are blown into a net of ecru-coloured cotton, making it durable yet silkily soft to the touch. 

Why is it exciting to create with the Stone Washed family?

This yarn family is a true playground for creative minds, as the members of the Stone Washed collection—the thinner Sport and Aran weights, and the new XXL version—harmonize perfectly in their colour palettes. This continuity allows you to boldly combine different yarn weights and textures within a single project. 

• Eye-catching garments: An excellent choice for chunky, characterful sweaters, cardigans, and vests. 
• Quick accessories: You can create soft hats, cowls, or headbands in just a few hours. 
• Modern home decor: Craft statement pillows, trendy poufs, or practical storage baskets. 
• Huggable blankets: Complete a large, extra-soft throw for your sofa in a fraction of the usual time thanks to the yarn's thickness.

Expert Tip for the Joy of Creation

Each 100g ball contains 90 metres of inspiration. Thanks to the "Easy Start" tab, you can pull the yarn from the centre immediately without searching, preventing the ball from rolling around while you work. While the recommended needle size starts at 6mm, we suggest using up to an 8mm hook or needle for garments with a softer, looser drape. Whether it is a beginner's first project or a fast make for an experienced crafter, this yarn is a reliable partner for achieving lasting, beautiful results.
