Tillie is a luxurious hand-dyed yarn made of pima cotton and cupro, a sustainable silk-like byproduct of cotton processing. Tillie’s chainette construction creates a lightweight yarn with generous yardage, along with amazing softness and structure. Made in Peru, this cotton blend has a gorgeous drape, smooth feel, and long-lasting durability. Plus it’s machine washable!
Berroco Tillie is a hand-dyed yarn; we recommend alternating skeins every two rounds/rows to avoid patterning.
Patterns for the garments and accessories shown are in Berroco Tillie Booklet 449. (The Kassell Shawl modeled in purple and red are the only crocheted patterns in this booklet.)
