🧵 The yarn

As the name suggests, Winter Cotton by Lane Mondial is a yarn with a wintry feel, yet made entirely of cotton. It is a chainette (tubular) yarn made of Egyptian cotton in both the fine outer mesh and the inner core: an innovative construction that makes it light, lofty, soft and warm to the touch.

Each ball weighs 50 grams and offers 125 metres of yarn. It comes in a range of 14 colours in classic tones: cream, sand, beaver, white, pearl and black, along with lively colours such as sun yellow, burgundy, cyclamen, baby pink, wisteria, sky blue, blue and Irish green.

🧬 Technical composition: why it works

Egyptian cotton has long, fine fibres that give a soft, strong and breathable yarn. The chainette structure traps air inside: this is why Winter Cotton keeps you warm like a winter yarn while staying light, so finished garments never feel heavy.

Unlike cooler cottons, its spongy structure gives a cosy, enveloping feel. It is the ideal choice for anyone looking for a warm yarn without animal fibres, for those who cannot stand wool against their skin and for little ones' garments.

📦 Ball size and yield

With 125 metres in 50 grams, Winter Cotton is a medium-weight yarn, easy to calculate for any project. As a reference, a women's sweater knitted on 3.5 and 4mm needles takes about 8 balls.

For a hat you need approximately 2 balls, for a scarf or a neck warmer 3-4 balls. We recommend buying all the balls at once, as colour lots may vary slightly from one production batch to another.

🧶 Recommended working

Work Winter Cotton with 3.5-4.5mm needles or a 3-3.5mm crochet hook. Smaller sizes give a compact, warm fabric, larger sizes a softer, airier one.

Its texture gives good stitch definition to simple stitches as well as lace, cables and textured stitches, with a soft and even finish.

✨ Why choose Mondial Winter Cotton

Winter Cotton combines the natural feel of cotton with the warmth of a winter yarn: it is soft, light, breathable and pleasant on the skin. It lets you use cotton in autumn and winter too, for garments that are warm but never heavy.

It is versatile, works well both on needles and with a hook, and has a classic colour range that is easy to match. The Lane Mondial brand is a guarantee of Italian quality.

🎨 What you can make

With Winter Cotton you can make sweaters, jackets and waistcoats, children's clothing, blankets, scarves and cowls, hats and many other accessories for the cold season.

👩‍🎨 Who it is for

Winter Cotton is suitable for all skill levels: it glides well on needles and hooks and has a thickness that is easy to handle. Experienced knitters will appreciate the stitch definition in cables and textured patterns.

It is perfect for those who make children's garments, for those with skin sensitive to wool, for those who prefer yarns without animal fibres and for those who want to work with cotton all year round.
