Down here at the shop, packages full of new spring yarns are arriving faster than we can unpack them. One of the most eye-catching items to arrive this week is Berroco Bozzolo - a smooth 100% cotton yarn from Italy. Bozzolo is a feathery soft, worsted/aran weight yarn that boasts 240 yards per ball and comes in a gorgeous array of solids and multicolors.

Never worked with cotton yarn? We encourage you to try it! We find that cotton yarns like Berroco Bozzolo are perfect for spring projects as they are breathable and super comfortable to wear. With a subtle sheen and delightful feel, this yarn gives an airy lightness to garments and accessories. We're pretty smitten with all of the patterns from Berroco Book 448 featuring Bozzolo, but thought we'd share a few of our top picks below to get you inspired.
