Default wendy roxy yarn

Hi,

I have a found a great pattern for a little jumper i'd love to knit,
but the recommended yarn contains wool. I am allergic to wool. is there
an alternative to wendy roxy yarn i could use instead?

Thanks for your help

Generally any yarn of the same weight - that is, worsted or DK or
whatever. There are cottons, cotton acrylic blends, silk or bamboo
yarns, though I think those latter two are thinner than worsted. Some of
the newer acrylic worsted weight yarns are nice and soft too. Caron's
Simply Soft, Red Heart Soft, Bernat's Satin and Softee Chunky, though
the chunky is thicker than worsted weight.
