For a cosy yarn combination that results in beautiful colour textures, try combining DROPS Kid-Silk 16, dark purple with DROPS Soft Tweed 15, purple rain.
The result is delicate and soft, with a knitting tension of about 16 stitches = 10 cm using 5 mm needles, which is a perfect fit for our Yarn Group C patterns.
Remember however that knitting tension varies from person to person and that the suggested needle size is only a guide. You can adjust the needle size to get a different tension - or match the tension recommended in the pattern you are working with. Just make a swatch!Colours combined:
DROPS Kid-Silk 16, dark purple +
DROPS Soft Tweed 15, purple rain
Knitting tension group: 17 - 16 stitches (5 - 5.5mm)
