{"product_id":"cashair-cashmere-camel-hair-yarn","title":"Cashmere Camel Hair Yarn, PROFILIO CASHAIR, Luxury Italian Lace Weight Yarn, Balls or Cones, 550m\/100g","description":"\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCASHAIR is the kind of yarn that makes you want to cast on a sweater immediately. The Grey Melange color is classic, unisex, and effortlessly elegant, while the luxurious blend of 95% Cashmere and 5% Camel Hair creates fabric that feels soft, warm, and incredibly comfortable against the skin. This is not a delicate \"special occasion\" yarn that sits in the closet. It is the kind of luxury yarn that turns into garments you reach for again and again.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhat impressed me most was how easy it was to knit. My sample was worked in a single strand on US 4 (3.5 mm) needles and produced an even, refined fabric with excellent stitch definition. After washing, the swatch opened beautifully, became noticeably softer and loftier, and developed a lovely halo while maintaining a clean, polished appearance. One strand is enough for lightweight luxury knitwear, while two strands create a more classic cashmere fabric with additional warmth and structure.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e▣ Product Specifications\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Manufacturer: PROFILIO s.n.c., Italy\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Article: CASHAIR\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Fiber Content: 95% Cashmere, 5% Camel Hair\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Yarn Category: Lace Weight\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Yarn Structure: Carded\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Yarn Count: Tit. 2\/11000\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Yardage: approximately 550m \/ 601yd per 100g (3.52oz)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Formats: Balls (BY DEFAULT) or Cones (PLEASE PURCHASE)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Origin: Made in Italy\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Availability: LIMITED QUANTITY\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e⋔ Swatch Notes\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Sample knitted in one strand\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• US 4 (3.5 mm) needles\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Very easy and enjoyable to knit\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Excellent stitch definition\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Forgiving and even fabric\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Softened significantly after washing\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Developed a beautiful halo\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Became loftier and more luxurious\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Improved drape after washing\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e⌁ Texture \u0026amp; Feel\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Exceptionally soft\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Lightweight warmth\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Soft halo after washing\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Comfortable next to skin\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Elegant drape\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Airy without feeling fragile\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Refined luxury feel\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e• Timeless appearance\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e⚑ Why This Yarn Is Special\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"isSelectedEnd\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMost cashmere yarns sell because of the fiber content.
