GARFIELD by Filati Biagioli Modesto, Italy is a soft, fluffy luxury yarn made from 90% alpaca and 10% polyamide, offering approximately 300 meters per 100 g. Despite its relatively fine meterage, this yarn behaves as a light sport-weight yarn due to its brushed alpaca construction. It creates airy, voluminous fabric with exceptional softness and warmth. Ideal for single-strand knitting for lightweight garments or as a companion yarn to add body, softness, and dimension.

This yarn stands out for its versatility and modern texture. The fluffy alpaca structure builds volume without heaviness, making finished garments warm yet breathable. It works beautifully alone for soft, airy knits or combined with other yarns like silk, sequins, or metallic threads to create rich, textured fabrics such as tweed-inspired or Chanel-style designs. The knitting experience is smooth and comfortable, with a soft, приятная feel and excellent visual result.

⚑ 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.

PLEASE 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.
