Joe,

Pretty sure it's a polypropylene yarn like Congo Hair; I've got both and can't tell the diference. I use it down to 18's; anything smaller than that and I've started using egg yarn (especially in hot orange); don't know if it's hydrophobic but with some floatant, it keeps it's head above water just fine.

Regards,
Scott
