Premium Bobbel – 50% Cotton / 50% Acrylic
Discover our high-quality gradient bobbles made from a pleasant mixed yarn: 50% cotton and 50% acrylic. This composition ensures breathability, durability, and a soft feel – ideal for year-round knitting and crocheting projects.
Versatility in Plies and Lengths
We offer bobbles in 3-ply, 4-ply, or 5-ply strands – depending on your preference and project requirements. Yarn lengths vary greatly, e.g., 250m up to 5,000m per bobble, so you can find exactly the right size for your project.
Easy-care & Sustainable
Our yarn consists of TVU cone yarn, which is tested for harmful substances. Products made from bobbles are washable at 40 °C – so your handmade items retain their beauty and shape even after many washes.
