Admiral Starke 6 Turkish Blue

Stärke 6 translates to “strength 6” and refers to a it being of a slightly heavier and sturdier weight/quality

Starke 6 works up between a DK and a sport weight – perfect for gloves, mittens, winter socks, scarves, wraps, shawls, or garments.

75% Superwash Wool and 25% biodegradable Nylon.

Whereas other synthetic fibers persist in the environment for decades before they degrade completely, natural composting processes decompose the biodegradable polyamide fiber in these Admiral Starke 6 in around five years. As with other natural fibers, the degradation process does not occur in daily use.

gauge: 10x10cm = 22 stitches x 30 rows
