La Bien Aimee Corrie Worsted - Confetti

We are so excited to receive some of this special edition Corrie Worsted Confetti!  Confetti is a new and limited edition Corrie Worsted base with bright and beautiful specs of recycled threads of La Bien Aimée yarn.

Corrie Confetti has been one of Aimée's passion projects for the last year or so. A brand new yarn, it is a one-of-a-kind limited edition yarn comprised of a mix of recycled natural fibers that include upcycled La Bien Aimée yarn and custom-dyed Falkland Corriedale. A sister yarn to Corrie Worsted, this super-soft base contains 50%  of dyed Corrie Worsted, and the rest is recycled fibres from the mill and colorful yarn waste from our dye studio and atelier. Confetti has a slight thick and thin aspect to the yarn due to the recycled yarn bits that create the "Confetti" effect. It can be used for patterns that call for worsted weight or DK. You can mix it easily with Corrie Worsted.

Loop is proud to be the London, and UK stockist for Aimee's hand-dyed yarns. 

Confetti is wonderful paired with complementary colours of La Bien Aimée Silk Mohair for a beautiful soft and silky fabric.  It's so easy to completely customise and bring an extra dimension to the colour by holding a strand of the mohair and the Corrie confetti together, as seen in the photos.
