Description

Berroco Meraki Yarn is an excellent, lightweight, thick and thin textured blend of 71% Cotton, 24% Hemp, and 5% Polyester that is perfect for warm weather projects! The thick and thin texture takes on a sort of wavy appearance paired with the tweed-like, stonewash effect and it’s lightweight nature, this yarn screams Hello Summer! You’ll also love the ease in being machine washable!

Tip: When working with a thin and thick yarn, keep a looser tension on the thin portions. You’ll want bring your thin loops up to the same height as the thick loops so the rows will be even. It’s not everyone’s cup of tea, but with a little patience, it will produce such a fun, textured fabric!

Pre-Order Details:

This yarn is available for pre-order. Berroco is a new brand for the Yarn Crafts and Coffee Yarn Shop (though personally, I have used several of the lines and absolutely love it!) so I am taking pre-orders to build up my stock with all your favorites. Looking at the photos, the ones of 3 balls of yarn together are ones I’ve received for my shop in the past. Other yarn swatches will be new to the shop if ordered. You can purchase any of these through end of day EST on August 18th, 2024. Plug in code 081830PK to save 30% off your purchase! Free shipping in the US on orders of $75 or more, otherwise it’s a $10 flat fee.

I will gather all of the sales, and place one big order on August 19th. I should receive the yarn in my cat friendly studio about 2 weeks later, and then I will turnaround and ship it out to you so expect about 3 weeks but up to 4 weeks from August 19th for your order to ship (ie middle of September).

For any yarns/colorways that are not available as of my order date, I will reach out individually via email to see if you’d like me to put it on re-order or cancel and refund that portion of your order – I won’t know until I receive my order what is on backorder. If you’ve ordered enough to qualify for free shipping, you will still receive it on your current order regardless of whether or not yarns have been cancelled by me from your order, and I will honor it on a future order that includes any yarns you opted for re-order on.
