Detailed information

Schachenmayr Wash+Filz-It! Multicolor is a Limited Edition yarn with which you will be able to make your felted pieces easily. You only have to knit and then wash to get that characteristic felted look.

You must take into account that the knitted yarn will shrink between 30% and 40% after washing, so you must knit your project in a bigger size to get the desired size.

This yarn has a multi-coloured appearance with different speckled colours, which will give a funny result to your projects. It is perfect to knit warm pieces like a bonnet or some bootees. You can also use it to make baskets, bags, poufs and other accessories where you need resistance and hardness.
