Lion Brand Mandala Yarn
Five hundred and ninety yards in one cake, and the colour changes itself.
Mandala is a #3 light acrylic: 150 g and 590 yards. Knit gauge is 22 stitches to 4 inches on 3.75 mm needles. The page price is $8.99. One cake is pitched at a scarf, a small shawl, or a hat.
Lion Brand is the New Jersey family company, with a Manhattan design centre and a Georgia base on the about page. Mandala does not name a mill, in Canada or elsewhere.
The care line allows the hottest wash and a hot dryer. It is a different yarn from Wool-Ease, which is the worsted wool blend.
