Tencel Bamboo Double is a delicate and soft yarn, with a silky sheen.
The yarn is amazingly delicious, and feels beautiful in the hands, whilst knitting or crocheting.
In addition, the yarn is strong and holds its shape.
Tencel Bamboo Double consists of 9 threads that each consist of 2 threads - which means a total of 18 threads. It can be compared to its even finer ‘sister yarn’, Tencel Bamboo Fine, which consists of a total of 12 threads.
Info on the material ‘Tencel’:
What is it?
Tencel is an ecologically sustainable organic material, made from wood chips primarily from beech and eucalyptus trees. The trees are FSC certified and the wood chips originate from the natural thinning of forests and as byproducts of other timber production.
Tencel is the most sustainable material made under excellent environmental considerations.
Tencel’s uniqueness.
The fibers’ composition from beech and eucalyptus make the Tencel material really comfortable against the skin. The fiber’s smooth structure makes the yarn softer than silk and smoother for the skin than wool and cotton and is also super absorbent.
The thread can be more loosely spun in some places than others, which is a natural part of the thread’s character. The finished result is so lovely.
Children will love the Tencel Bamboo yarn!
It would be difficult to find another yarn so gentle and soft against the skin as the Tencel Bamboo yarn - Children will definitely be delighted with the feeling against the skin.

My new favourite yarn. I love how soft it is and the sheen adds an elegance. Wonderful drape too. It does split a little bit at times but it is worth it for the sheer joy of knitting something drapey and beautiful with it.

Beautiful, super soft yarn that looks and feels amazing, im currently crocheting wrist warmers (finally something for myself) and my mum has already asked me to make her some in this same yarn.....

Beautiful yarn, lovely to crochet with and it so very soft. I loved working with cotton until I tried this now I will be getting this whenever possible instead

Love this yarn and its eco properties so very soft
Made my grandson a sweater which he loves after helping me unpack some I bought to make a scarf.

Overall very nice wool! I have been working with it and it can split quite easily. It’s a shame because the colour (gold/yellow for me) was very vibrant and the texture is very soft. Hopefully looking forward to crocheting more with this once I get used to it :)
