What Swipe – Perfect Match offers
The combination of 95% cotton with 5% polyester creates a soft, fresh yarn with a moderate sheen that works wonderfully for transitional garments and finishing details. Carla notes that, when knitted alongside a plain cotton, "it achieves that runway finish with zero complications." Maite agrees: "she finds it ideal for finishing yokes, cuffs, and edges; it transforms a basic into a special piece."
