A beautifully dense, high-quality lace yarn crafted from a refined blend of fine Merino and Cashmere. TEN CASH is intentionally designed for multi-strand knitting, offering versatility, warmth, and an elegant, full-bodied fabric. With its extremely high yardage and thick lace construction, this yarn transforms into modern knitwear that feels smooth, warm, and substantial — perfect for garments that need refinement without heaviness.

✨ Texture & Feel
This is a thick lace yarn with a smooth, soft hand and gentle elasticity. TEN CASH is not suitable for single-thread or two-thread knitting — the fabric will be far too thin and unstable. It performs best when held in 3–6 strands, depending on the desired fabric weight. After washing, the yarn blooms into a cohesive, soft, warm fabric with exceptional comfort and drape. Ideal for sweaters, cardigans, shawls, and luxury basics.

🧶 Recommended Uses
Perfect for:
• Multi-strand sweaters and cardigans
• Warm shawls, scarves, and wraps
• Modern, structured garments
• Baby garments and sensitive-skin knitwear
• Lightweight yet warm luxury pieces with Italian refinement

🧶 Blending Recommendations
Pairs exceptionally well with:
• Silk — adds drape and subtle sheen
• Cashmere — increases softness and luxury
• Mohair/Silk — adds halo and modern loft
• Merino — enhances structure and resilience
• Alpaca — deepens warmth and softness
Use 3–6 strands of TEN CASH alone, or blend with a fine strand of silk, cashmere, mohair, or merino for added depth and luxury.

🪡 Recommended Needles & Hooks (Multi-Strand Only)
Because TEN CASH is a dense lace, it should not be used in 1 or 2 threads.

3 strands — Light Fingering, approx. 465m/100g → 3.0–3.5 mm (US 2.5–4)
4 strands — Fingering / Light Sport, approx. 350m/100g → 3.5–4.0 mm (US 4–6)
5 strands — Sport / Light DK, approx. 280m/100g → 4.0–4.5 mm (US 6–7)
6 strands — DK / Worsted, approx. 230m/100g → 4.5–5.5 mm (US 7–9)

Crochet Hooks: 3.0–5.0 mm depending on strand count.

📏 Estimated Yarn Usage (Multi-Strand Construction)
• Sweater (Size M): 200–300 g
• Cardigan: 250–350 g
• Shawl or Wrap: 140–220 g (3–4 strands)
• Scarf or Cowl: 100–160 g
• Baby garments: 60–120 g

🧵 Weaving Recommendations (Multi-Strand Only)
TEN CASH cannot be used in one thread for weaving — it is too fine and lacks structural stability.
Use 3–6 strands depending on the desired fabric weight.

3 strands — soft, drapey weft
4–5 strands — ideal for shawls, scarves, and warm textiles
6 strands — fuller, warmer weft for substantial fabrics

TEN CASH works beautifully as weft. For warp, pair multiple strands of TEN CASH with a firmly twisted wool, silk, or merino warp to maintain tension.

Suggested Sett (EPI): 8–12 depending on strand count.

📍 Care Instructions
• Hand wash gently in cold water
• Do not wring or twist
• Reshape and lay flat to dry away from direct sunlight

🧶 Formats: Balls (BY DEFAULT) or Cones (PLEASE PURCHASE)

📍 FOR FULL-CONE SALES, THERE IS NO ADDITIONAL CHARGE FOR THE CONE. Yarn will remain on its original cone.

📍 FOR YARN THAT IS NOT SOLD AS A FULL CONE BUT IN VARIOUS WOUND WEIGHTS, ALL YARN WILL BE WOUND INTO BALLS BY DEFAULT. CONES ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THE YARN PRICE. However, we can wind it onto cones upon request. PLEACE BUY CONES HERE

Unlike other shops where cone costs are often built into the yarn price—regardless of the format—our pricing is transparent. You pay only for the yarn itself. If you’d like your order wound on a cone, it can be purchased separately. This small additional charge also helps cover packaging differences and the actual cost of the cone. No hidden fees, no inflated markups—just honest, straightforward pricing.

📍 Please Note

Please keep in mind: cone yarns, especially those made with extra fine merino or cashmere, may include a protective coating used for industrial knitting. A few gentle washes will allow the yarn to bloom, soften, and reveal its natural texture.
Colors are photographed in natural light but may appear slightly different depending on your screen.
FOR YARN THAT IS CUSTOM-WOUND, ±1–2g variation per 100g may occur due to winding.
Each ball/cone is wound with care and packed securely to ensure it reaches you in perfect condition.

📦 Shipping & Order Processing

Orders are prepared in the order received and typically ship within 3–5 business days. Custom requests such as cone winding may require additional time. Multiple orders placed before shipment may be combined. Shipping refunds are not issued for combined orders.

We ship worldwide with tracking provided. As customs policies and tariffs can change frequently, any duties, taxes, or import fees are the sole responsibility of the buyer. These charges are not collected by us at the time of purchase but are typically paid to your local postal service or customs office upon the arrival of your package.
