Luxe Cotton Acrylic Yarn 100g 8ply - Ocean

Porta Craft Luxe Cotton Blend Yarn in Ocean brings a rich blue tone to an adaptable 8ply yarn made from 60% cotton and 40% acrylic. With approximately 220 metres per 100g ball, this cotton acrylic yarn is well suited to garments, accessories, blankets and crochet.

Ocean sits comfortably between brighter blue shades and deep navy, making it a useful choice when you want colour without the intensity of a vivid blue. It works particularly well with White, Ivory and grey neutrals, while Navy can be added for depth and Coral or Apricot can provide warmer contrast.

The fibre blend is designed for versatility. Cotton gives the yarn a comfortable, lightweight character, while acrylic contributes practical durability and makes the yarn suitable for regular-use projects. The combination is useful for year-round knitting and crochet rather than being restricted to either summer or winter makes.

Use this DK / 8ply yarn for jumpers, cardigans, baby clothing, lightweight blankets, scarves, hats and crochet garments. Smaller quantities can also be used effectively for borders, stripes and colourwork. The recommended knitting needle is 4.5mm, although your pattern gauge should determine the final needle size.

Ocean makes an especially useful main colour for projects where you want a stronger blue foundation without moving all the way to the depth of Navy.
