There are a number of Stone washed yarns around but Stylecraft Batik is different because it has a wool content instead of being a cotton yarn.
I presume it's created in a similar way as you create Batik fabrics hence the name.....must ask and let you know
It's a very springy yarn that fills the space well and looks very textural, I just love the effect you get from this yarn.
It makes up in several motifs from mini exotics....not made any of these for a while
