DROPS Fiesta is a vibrant, hard-wearing sock yarn with a superwash treatment, meaning it's easy to maintain and machine washable. A colorful and fun yarn that's warm and soft to the touch, it's perfect for so much more than just socks; try it on sweaters, jackets, and hats!
Being part of Yarn Group B, DROPS Fiesta is an ideal yarn for patterns created for DROPS Karisma, DROPS Lima, DROPS Merino Extra Fine and more...
The printed colors in DROPS Fiesta have a hand-dyed appearance, with slight variations in the patterns and nuances, meaning no two skeins are the same. These variations are not defects but a characteristic result of the dyeing technique used in this yarn.
The knitted samples in the color chart show color transitions that you can achieve when knitting a small number of stitches, such as when knitting socks, so you should be aware that the color gradient will be different/vary in projects with a different width in terms of stitch count.
