RUBÍ BAMBÚ LOTUS: A LIGHT AND ELEGANT NATURAL FIBER Rubí Bambú Lotus is made of 100% bamboo fiber, a natural raw material known for its softness, subtle sheen, and excellent drape in fabric.

Bamboo is characterized by offering: a silky and pleasant texture to the touch; lightness in knitted garments; an elegant natural sheen and coolness, ideal for mid-season and summer garments.

Furthermore, this yarn features a strand formed by six softly twisted plies, which provides stability to the fabric and good stitch definition.

Each ball contains 270 meters per 100 grams, a generous yardage that allows for complete projects without needing many balls.
