Cotton FANTASY FLAME Lurex Tweed Yarn, SUNFLOWER, Luxury Collection by RiGo, Sold in Balls or on Cones, Lace Yarn, 650m/100g (710y)

✨ A truly unique yarn with playful texture and sparkle, SUNFLOWER from RiGo, Italy, is a blend of 75% Cotton, 15% Metallic (LUREX), and 10% Polyamide. The cotton strand is delicately wrapped with a fine lurex thread, creating irregular sections where contrasting cocoons (small textured knots) alternate with shimmering lurex cocoons at varying 8-10 inch intervals. The yarn is soft to the touch and versatile. It can be worked beautifully on its own, but truly shines when combined with other yarns—adding depth, texture, and eye-catching contrast to your knitting or crochet projects.

📍 ALL PURCHASED YARN IS WOUND INTO BALLS BY DEFAULT. HOWEVER, WE CAN WIND IT ONTO CONES UPON REQUEST. THIS IS LIMITED QUANTITY YARN!

YOU CAN BUY CONES HERE

📍 CONES ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THE YARN PRICE.
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 the shipping cost associated with different packaging sizes and the self-cost of the cone. No hidden fees, no inflated markups—just honest, straightforward pricing.

📍 Care Instructions:

📍 Please note:
Most yarn prepared on cones for machine knitting is lightly waxed to ensure smooth running. Once knit, it should be washed to reveal its true softness. This yarn is perfect for both hand and machine knitting, highly recommended for creating premium-quality knitwear.

📸 Please Note:
• The amount of yarn shown on cones in the photos may not reflect the actual quantity you’ll receive. Yarn is custom-wound per your order.
• Colors are photographed in natural lighting but may appear slightly different depending on your screen settings. I recommend zooming in on each photo to fully appreciate the beauty and texture of the yarn.
• ±1–2g variation per 100g may occur due to the winding process.
• Each ball/cone is wound with care and packed securely to ensure it reaches you in perfect condition.
