Butterfly Kouvertonima is a soft yet exceptionally strong yarn made from 100% mercerized cotton grown in Greece. Designed with crocheters in mind, it combines outstanding durability with a smooth, pleasant feel. The entire process — from cotton cultivation to spinning, dyeing, and packaging — takes place within Greece, resulting in a minimal transportation footprint. Its longest journey is to Switzerland.
Thanks to its high-twist 4-ply construction, Kouvertonima offers excellent stitch definition, strength, and resistance to wear while remaining soft and enjoyable to crochet with.
Traditionally, Kouvertonima has been used to create heirloom-quality blankets, bedspreads, curtains, lace trims for household linens, and christening garments and accessories.
Today, it is equally suitable for garments, accessories, and home décor projects, whether worked on its own, held double, or combined with other yarns. It particularly excels in filet crochet, lacework, and textured stitch patterns, where its crisp stitch definition truly shines.
