Turn to "Kiss" yarn from Filatura Di Crosa when you need a thicker baby yarn than the typical fingering-weight fiber knitted on small needles. Its heavy worsted gauge knits up quickly on size 9 U.S. (5.5mm) needles. You'll also love its braided, woven construction for great stitch definition & added texture in your knitting & crochet projects. Made in Italy exclusively for Filatura Di Crosa of 51% wool & 49% acrylic.
