Stylecraft ReCreate is a brand new yarn and is a part of Stylecraft's efforts to produce yarns with less impact on the environment.  It is a blended yarn made entirely from recycled fibres.  40% wool from recycled garments, 30% acrylic also from recycled garments and 30% polyester that comes from shredded plastic bottles and is then spun.  It comes in 8 shades (above), and there are 6 patterns to go with them.

I was very excited to cast on the cabled cardigan for myself in the navy yarn shown in the pattern.. It's a really lovely shade of navy with a mostly cream fleck which I really like.  I'm hoping the largest size will work for me, and I was pleasantly surprised that it only requires 7 balls!

You can find the yarn here and the patterns here.
