▣ Texture & Feel
FLANELL is smooth, velvety, and incredibly light. The Merino brings warmth and structure, while the Cashmere elevates the softness and luxury. It produces an elegant drape with a subtle halo, ideal for fine-gauge projects that feel heavenly against the skin.

▣ Recommended Uses
Perfect for sophisticated sweaters, soft turtlenecks, lace shawls, lightweight cardigans, or delicate layering pieces. It can also be held double or triple for sport- to DK-weight projects, allowing you to regulate thickness and texture according to your design.

Crochet Hooks: 2.0–3.0 mm (US B–C)

Held double (Light Fingering / Sport): Sweater – 250–350 g (5000–7000 m / 5460–7650 yd)
Held triple (DK): Sweater – 350–450 g (4000–5000 m / 4370–5460 yd)
Held 4 strands (Worsted / Machine Knitting): 400–600 g depending on garment size and desired density

▣ Weaving Recommendations
Ideal for both warp and weft use. The Merino content gives tensile strength and bounce, while Cashmere adds softness and a refined matte sheen. For delicate woven fabrics or scarves, a sett of 12–16 EPI works beautifully. For thicker or multi-strand weaving, reduce the sett proportionally to highlight the yarn’s natural loft.

▣ Care Instructions
Hand wash gently in cold water with mild detergent
Do not wring or twist
Lay flat to dry out of 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. Cones may be purchased separately if you prefer continuous yardage for machine knitting or multi-strand projects. One color is typically wound per cone to maintain consistency.

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.
