Glossy, delightful bamboo meets soft and fine cotton!

A special yarn in 100% natural materials has been made and it’s a dream to work with.

Rainbow Bamboo consists partly of cotton of very high quality and partly of a viscose which is spun on bamboo fibers.

Bamboo fiber is very strong and adds extra durability to the cotton. It is also breathable and regulates temperature. If you are allergic to wool or animal fibers, Rainbow Bamboo can be a really great alternative.

The delightful materials are soft and comfortable against the skin, which makes Rainbow Bamboo especially suitable for all forms of clothing, carpets, and other interior projects.

With the added weight, knitted and crocheted pieces in Rainbow Bamboo gain a certain fall that is beautiful and keeps its shape. Remember to let it flat-dry after washing.

PS: Rainbow Bamboo is really suitable for dishcloths, but the cloths can and should be washed at 60°C (140°F).

The yarn is OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 STANDARD 100 certified (no. 2276-367). Find more information about the certification at https://www.oeko-tex.com/en/

I used this yarn for some Amigurumi and it is beeeautiful. I was previously using cotton which gives a great finish but is just SUCH hard work to work with whereas the Rainbow Bamboo is brilliant. It's super soft and I had no issues with splitting whatsoever, great colour choices and one ball goes a long way. The stitch definition is great, it's not too stretchy so you don't have gaping holes and it doesn't shed fibres like acrylic yarn so it's good for babies.
I used a 2.75mm hook and it turned out fantastically.

Being familiar with the softness of bamboo fabric I decided to try Rainbow bamboo yarn - I think it may be my new favourite, it’s beautiful! As others have said, it is so much nicer to work with than 100% cotton yarn, no splitting and beautiful stitch definition. I’m using it to crochet the Hobbii Simple Scarf and I’m so pleased with the results. The fabric it creates is soft with a lovely weighty drape, it feels very luxurious. I’ll definitely be using Rainbow bamboo again.


Melanie

Beautiful yarn and lovely to work with. It also responded perfectly when I used a Russian join for the first time. I was looking for something different to make a baby blanket with and this was a perfect choice. The finished product had a lovely silky finish and was a good weight. I was delighted to see the blanket it use this weekend when I met my great-niece for the first time. I will definitely be using this yarn again for my next baby blanket.


Lisa

This is the nicest cotton I have ever used. It simply glides on the hook. It doesn't split at all like some cotton. It has such a silky feel to it, its a dream to work with. I'm currently making a blanket with it using a 3mm hook and the stitches are so defined. I will definitely be using this yarn again.


Nisreen

I finally found the right project for this wonderful yarn. It feels so soft and is such a pleasure to knit with. The stitch definition is just perfect. The colours are so different and beautiful. I can't wait to share the finished product and start a second project with the same yarn.
