At last, a stretchy, non-wool sock yarn! Not just for socks, though! Wisdom Yarns’ Allegro is a smooth, super-soft blend of acrylic and PBT – a type of polyester, similar to Lycra, that adds stretch. Allegro is machine-washable, and dryable.
Wool-free Allegro feels smooth and sleek, with great colour and elasticity. It’s a perfect self-striping yarn for sweaters, shawls, sock projects and more! Made in Turkey.

Berroco’s DropShip yarn feature for this week is REMIX….
Remix is made from a soft, comfortable blend of nylon, cotton, acrylic, silk and linen. A tweedy, rustic look makes this yarn an ideal candidate for casual knits, and the machine washability means any garment will be low maintenance and long lasting.
Finished garments are immediately cozy, with the feeling of well-loved jeans or your favorite, comfy T-shirt.
Made from 100% recycled fibers, this ‘eco-friendly’ yarn is an exciting all-season blend that is comfortable in every way. Made in France.
Reduce, reuse, recycle.
How are you greening your knitting? Enter Remix, a 100% recycled Berroco yarn made using a low-impact manufacturing process patented in France. See the About Remix page to find out more about how Remix is made and why it is eco-friendly.
**We have a sample ball of Remix at the store. If you would like to view it prior to ordering, we can show it to you through the window. It really is quite striking, with good substance – or as we in this line of work say, good “UUMPH!” ;)
[In case you’re wondering, that’s an official, professional, technical term, ha ha]
Available in 24 superb colours!
