Luxe Cotton Acrylic Yarn 100g 8ply - Apricot

Bring warm peach-apricot to your next project with Porta Craft Luxe Cotton Blend Yarn in Apricot, an 8ply / DK cotton acrylic yarn made from 60% cotton and 40% acrylic. With approximately 220 metres in each 100g ball, this versatile cotton blend yarn is a practical choice for knitting and crochet, from lightweight garments and baby projects to accessories, blankets and home décor.

Apricot is warm peach-apricot, giving makers a useful solid-colour option for everything from simple everyday pieces to detailed colourwork. This peach-apricot shade can be used as a main colour or combined with coordinating tones from the Luxe range for stripes, colour blocks, borders and contrasting details. A cheerful warm shade that adds softness to summer-inspired palettes and pairs well with creams, pinks and earthy neutrals.

The 60% cotton and 40% acrylic construction is one of the strengths of this yarn. Cotton contributes its familiar natural-fibre character and a lighter, comfortable feel, while acrylic adds practicality, helping create a durable yarn that is suitable for regular-use projects and easy-care routines. The result is a soft, versatile DK / 8ply blend that can be used across seasons rather than being limited to one type of project.

With approximately 220 metres per 100g ball, Luxe Cotton Acrylic Yarn gives you plenty of length for an 8ply yarn and makes a useful all-round option for garments, babywear, crochet, scarves, hats, lightweight blankets, accessories and home projects. Use the recommended 4.5mm knitting needle as a starting point, then check your pattern tension and adjust your needle or hook size to achieve the fabric you want.

Porta Craft Luxe Cotton Acrylic Yarn is a great choice when you want the familiar appeal of cotton with the added practicality of an acrylic blend. The wide range of solid colours also makes it easy to build coordinated projects, from subtle neutral combinations to brighter statement colour palettes.
