Why you'll love it

Need a soft, smooth cotton yarn that shows off every stitch?
Bellissimo Airlie is a 4ply mercerised cotton that brings crisp stitch definition, gentle drape and a delicate sheen to your projects. Whether you're crocheting a summer top or knitting a baby blanket, this yarn handles beautifully and wears well.

The colour palette is rich and vibrant, with excellent colourfastness. It's made from long-staple cotton that's been both mercerised and gassed (to remove any stray fibres), which gives it a sleek feel and creates a polished finish.

Airlie is easy to care for and wonderfully versatile. Your projects will have a touch of refinement that bring out the best in every stitch.

Yarn Weight vs Yarn Ply

"Ply" technically refers to the construction of the yarn. It's the number of strands that are twisted together to make a single piece of yarn. While "ply" historically related to the thickness (or weight) of the yarn, today's spinning technology means that the number of plies doesn't always correspond directly to the thickness of the yarn.

However, in some countries, including Australia & the UK, the numbering system of yarn ply still refers to the thickness of the yarn, so it's possible to have a single ply 4ply yarn! - this means that the yarn is constructed of a single ply, but has the traditional thickness of a 4ply sock / fingering yarn).

For more information, please refer to our Hook, Needle & Yarn Guide and our blog A Quick Guide to Yarn Weights.
