Handmade = handled with love. Whether it’s a DIY project or a finished piece from The Collective, follow these care tips to keep it looking fresh:
Wash: Machine wash on gentle (cold water preferred) or hand wash for extra care.
Dry: Lay flat to dry for best results, especially for structured or wearable items. Some poly/acrylic blends may tolerate low-heat drying – check individual tags for guidance.
Avoid heat and harsh chemicals: No bleach or hot irons—your yarn deserves better!
Shape it up: While drying, gently reshape your item to keep its perfect form.
Every product listing includes care notes based on the yarn used—so you’ll always know how to give your piece the TLC it deserves.
Characterised by a silky sheen, Catona Chroma feels soft and supple to the touch, and benefits from the natural, breathable properties of cotton. Add to that the multicoloured splendour of each colourway and this yarn range quickly turns into a must-have for each crafter looking to crochet or knit blankets, garments, home accessories, amigurumi and more.
Catona Chroma carries the same certificates as Catona, including the EN71-3 certification which guarantees that fibres and dyes used are safe for those with sensitive skin, such as babies and children. The yarn is also produced using 95% recycled wastewater; the remaining 5% is treated with organic matter and safely returned to the local environment.
