Beam 3/2 Organic Cotton Weaving Yarn ~ Mist

I made some tea towels and I just love the weight of this yarn. It's easy to use and feels beautiful. I will definitely buy again.

This yarn is really lovely to work with - strong and supple. Washes great as well!

If you like bold colors, this cotton is for you. It was interesting to see the difference in sewing mercerized cotton vs. un-mercerized cotton such as Beam. I used an upholstery needle to sew the seams and lining on my cell phone bags. The un-mercerized cotton is noticeably stiffer than the mercerized. But the un-mercerized holds up better to the everyday wear that a cell phone purse receives. Is Beam a GOTS-certified organic cotton?

Beam is one of my favorite yarns to use. It is so versatile and the colors are wonderful. I love the jade color and I am planning a kitchen project using it.

This marigold Beam cotton yarn is part of the twill towel set. The finished towels bring welcome sunshine into my November lit kitchen.
