{"product_id":"cotton-lurex-yarn-rigo-sunflower","title":"Cotton Lurex Yarn, RiGo SUNFLOWER, Premium Italian Lace Weight Yarn, Balls or Cones, 650m\/100g","description":"\u003cp data-start=\"134\" data-end=\"586\"\u003eSUNFLOWER by RiGo is a truly unusual luxury Italian cotton yarn with shimmering lurex cocoons, soft textured knots, and an artistic irregular structure that instantly adds depth, sparkle, and couture texture to knitwear. With approximately 650 meters per 100 g, this lace-weight yarn works beautifully both on its own and as a carry-along yarn for creating Chanel-inspired fabrics, modern textured knitwear, artistic crochet, and statement accessories.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"588\" data-end=\"956\"\u003eThis is not a basic cotton yarn. SUNFLOWER features alternating cocoon sections where soft cotton texture and shimmering lurex cocoons appear organically throughout the strand every 8–10 inches, creating movement, texture, and subtle sparkle directly inside the yarn itself. The result is elegant, playful, modern fabric with a highly distinctive Italian fashion look.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"958\" data-end=\"1219\"\u003eOne of the most valuable qualities of SUNFLOWER is how easily it transforms other yarns. Even simple merino, alpaca, cashmere, silk, mohair, or cotton blends become more textured, dimensional, and visually expensive when SUNFLOWER is carried together with them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp

data-start=\"2153\" data-end=\"2156\"\u003eSUNFLOWER is not simply a sparkle yarn — it is a textured Italian fashion yarn designed to create movement, depth, and visual interest directly inside the fabric.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2320\" data-end=\"2500\"\u003eThe cocoon effect creates irregular textured sections that give knitwear a handcrafted couture appearance highly associated with luxury Italian fashion fabrics and designer tweeds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2502\" data-end=\"2750\"\u003eThis yarn is especially beautiful when:\u003cbr\u003e• carried together with
