About the yarn
Eucalyps is a soft and silky plant-based yarn with a beautiful, subtle sheen. Like our other yarns, Eucalyps is a sustainable choice for knitters and crocheters.
We only use eucalyptus trees from sustainably managed European forests, and the environmentally friendly yarn production process takes place in a closed loop: the raw materials used are also reused.
But Eucalyps isn’t just great for the environment: this plant-based yarn is beautiful, luxuriously soft, and highly absorbent. That makes this yarn ideal for crafting clothes!
Our Eucalyptus Yarn is available in 14 colours and sold in individual balls of 50 grams (83 meters) and 100 grams (165 meters).
Eucalyps is machine washable at low temperatures and is therefore suitable for everyday use. Washing instructions: wash at low temperatures and with similar colours. We recommend handling your delicate and handmade creations with extra care.

You can choose your colour combination or follow Becks ’s and Hoooked’s Team suggestions.
