Yarn Substitutions Advice from Kristin Omdahl

325 yards (162m) per 4oz (113g) hank.

This lustrous and silky soft yarn gets even drapier and silkier after hand-washing in your favorite delicate wash. The colors are bright, saturated and inspired by tropical flowers and the sea.

Be So Sporty Yarn is 100% bamboo yarn. While we have made every effort to display the colors accurately, the actual color may differ somewhat from what you see on your electronic device. The colors of these saturated yarns vary by dye batch. Please purchase sufficient yarn for your project.

Be So Sporty Yarn is sold in a hank.

1 review for Be So Sporty Yarn

  1. Rated 5 out of 5

    janhare26 – May 25, 2021

    Be So Sporty Yarn is one of my favorite yarns. It’s a beautiful lush bamboo yarn that’s environmentally viable. It is easy to work and produces a fabric with excellent drape that is comfortable as a wearable. The color selection, many inspired by nature, is stunning often making it difficult to choose. I am partial to both the gold and silver bling yarns. The actual silver thread that runs through the yarn creates an elegant fabric with a subtle shimmer. Kristin has hundreds of lovely patterns that suit this yarn. I recommend this yarn all the time to both knitters and crocheters.
