Scheepjes - Catona 50g

A true classic of mercerized cotton, appreciated for its softness, consistency, and incredible color palette.

Scheepjes Catona is a 100% mercerized cotton yarn with a smooth and supple feel, enhanced by a delicate satin sheen. Breathable and pleasant to work with, it offers excellent stitch definition and particularly highlights textured stitches, crochet, and small details.

Extremely versatile, Catona is just as suitable for garments and accessories as it is for blankets, home decor, toys, and, of course, amigurumi. Its vast range of colors allows for all types of combinations, from the most subtle monochromatic schemes to the most vibrant compositions.

EN71-3 certified, it meets safety requirements applicable specifically to materials used for toys, making it a particularly attractive yarn for creating projects intended for babies and children.

Its manufacturing process also utilizes recycled wastewater, in an effort to reduce the use of resources during production.
