I LOVE LOVE LOVE crocheting with cotton yarns. They feel so wonderful going through my hands, and the items that I have crocheted using 100% cotton yarn have held up very well. One of the problems with cotton is that it is one of the highest sprayed/polluted by poison crops grown in the world. While I haven’t tried any of the organic cotton yarns…YET, I’m very excited that some of the major yarn brands are now coming out with organic/”green” fibers for fiber artists. I got an email today announcing that Lion Brand Yarns now has a NEW organic cotton yarn. It looks heavenly, and I can’t wait to find a local source for it! 🙂
