Cana Ruca - Atlantic (#207)
Atlantic is the mostly sublte of the Cana Ruca yarns on Featherstitches. It moves between medium and light blue with little distinction between the two.
Cana Ruca, 'sugar cane' in Spanish, is a soft, glossy yarn made from viscose derived from sugar cane. It reminds me of stranded embroidery cotton, with its lustre and six strands.
Each skein is hand painted. If using this in projects that need more than one skein it's recommended to alternate skeins every 2 to 4 rows. This yarn is also slightly splitty, so a hook or needles with nice rounded tips is recommended.
