The Christmas cactus (Schlumbergera) is a tropical plant native to Brazil’s rainforests, known for its flattened, segmented stems and vibrant winter blooms. Unlike desert cacti, it thrives in humid, shaded environments. Flowering in pink, red, or white around midwinter, it brightens homes during the holidays and symbolises resilience and renewal.
It is a superwash treated soak weight yarn spun from 75% merino wool that’s soft and warm with 25% nylon for enhanced durability. Around 420 metres per 100g skein.
This yarn is presented as a skein. If you would like it caked then this adds 24h to the dispatch time and is a paid for service.
