Bergere de France 50 coton review

Coton fifty is a round twisted yarn, quite fine but not at all breakable. Made up of 50% acrylic and 50% cotton there are 20 different colours to choose from, bright to subtle and muted  including creams, greys, lime green to pinks and corals. Plums, browns, black and white complete the range.

Machine wash and tumble dry makes Coton fifty an easy care yarn. The combination of acrylic and cotton makes it easy to use and produces a soft firm finish with good stitch definition.  Cotton fifty would be good for summer jumpers or crochet mats and heavy weight small summer scarves.

A 50gm ball has approximately 140metres of yarn. I used a 2.5mm crochet hook to make the bookmark. 11 stitches made 2” (5cm) and 6 rows made 1” (2.5cm).
