Scheepjes Downtown

Scheepjes Downtown is a self-striping yarn made from a luxurious blend of extra fine merino wool and nylon. It has a silky soft touch, beautiful drape and excellent stitch definition, making it ideal for projects with delicate textures. At the same time, it’s both durable and easy to care for – a rare combination.

Use
Downtown is perfect for accessories like socks, hats, mittens and scarves, as well as garments with colourful accents. Use it on its own or mix with solid yarn for bold contrasts.

Product benefits

• Softness: Extra fine merino gives a comfortable, luxurious feel
• Durability: Nylon adds strength, even with frequent wear and washing
• Self-striping: Beautiful colour changes without the need to switch yarns

Tips for use
Downtown pairs perfectly with Scheepjes Metropolis, as they share the same tension and coordinated colour palettes. Try striped socks with a solid heel and toe, or a jumper with contrasting sleeves.

Why choose this yarn?
A light, warm and versatile yarn that combines the softness of merino with the strength of nylon – ideal for everyday wear and creative touches.
