What is milk cotton yarn?

Milk cotton yarn is a type of yarn that combines milk fiber and cotton fiber together. Milk fiber is made from casein, a protein found in milk, which has similar properties to wool, such as softness, warmth, and breathability. Cotton fiber adds durability and strength to the yarn.

Milk cotton yarn is known for its luxurious feel and silky texture, making it a popular choice for knitting and crocheting soft and delicate items like baby clothes, blankets, and shawls. It is also hypoallergenic and suitable for sensitive skin, making it a great option for people with allergies.

This type of yarn is available in a variety of colors and weights, making it versatile for a range of projects. Milk cotton yarn is easy to care for and can be machine washed, although it is recommended to lay flat to dry to maintain the integrity and softness of the yarn.
