A yarn that doesn't scratch the neck
My neck skin is sensitive amd the acrylic yarns I've been using gor scarves are scratching my neck. Any yarn reccomendation for sensitive skin? Maybe bamboo or merino? bamboo would be a great choice since they're soft! Cotton, it's the best for sensitive skins. I am absolutely of merino / cotton blends for light wearables as they do not keep warmth too much (and I am not too fond of being warm).For winter wearables, alpaca is a must-have as it is quite affordable (compared to more expensive wool) very soft and very warm. static/image/common/user_online.gif kkoma75 static/image/common/clock.gif 2024-8-23 00:37

Thank you, I've noticed I really like the feeling of cottonblends but not cotton on its own. mercerized cotton maybe Hi :) I think Merino-cotton or alpaca blends are a safe bet... If you can afford more expensive yarns, I'd suggest mohair, which is very fine but as soft as a kitten. On the less expensive side, I think a velvet/chenille could be very warm and not itchy, even if it's still acrylic. Happy crafting :) bamboo/cotton blend would probably be very soft and therefore good for sensitive skin.
