Wren Organic Cotton Wool Blend Yarn

Choose organic cotton wool yarn with tweedy DK texture for knitting or crochet garments, accessories, hats, scarves and wraps.

Quince & Co Wren is an organic cotton wool yarn with a tweedy look, springy hand, and cozy softness that makes it useful across seasons. This woolen-spun DK weight yarn blends 60% American wool with 40% Texas organic cotton, bringing together the warmth and bounce of wool with the breathable comfort of cotton. The result is a yarn that feels both rugged and refined, with subtle texture that adds character to simple stitches, cables, ribbing, colorwork, and everyday accessories.

Wren works well for sweaters, pullovers, cardigans, cowls, scarves, hats, shawls, baby garments, lightweight blankets, and year-round layering pieces. The DK weight gives it enough substance for cozy fabric without feeling too heavy, making it a practical choice when you want stitch definition, softness, and natural fiber comfort in the same yarn.

Knitters can pair Wren with the right knitting needles for textured cardigans, polished pullovers, warm hats, mitts, and classic accessories. The listed knit gauge is 5 sts per inch on US 6 (4mm) needles and 4.75 sts per inch on size US 7 (4.5mm), giving makers a useful starting point for swatching. For crochet, this organic cotton wool yarn can be used for soft scarves, dense cowls, textured hats, lightweight wraps, granny-style garments, and modern home accents when paired with compatible crochet hooks.

Wren’s organic cotton is sourced from a cooperative of family farmers in Texas. Unlike industrially farmed cotton, the refined upland cotton used here is grown with organic methods that reduce impact on soil, water, air, and surrounding communities. That thoughtful sourcing gives the yarn added appeal for makers who care about both fiber quality and responsible production. The wool component adds loft and elasticity, while the cotton brings a grounded softness that makes the yarn comfortable for a wide range of garments and accessories.

Use Wren when you want a natural-fiber yarn that can move easily between casual and polished projects. It has the character to make plain stockinette or simple crochet stitches look interesting, but it also supports more detailed stitchwork beautifully. The tweedy texture gives finished pieces a lived-in warmth, making this yarn a dependable choice for handmade wardrobe staples, thoughtful gifts, and heirloom-quality projects that feel useful from the first wear.
