⌁ I knitted a sample using US 4 needles with a single strand, and the result is incredibly soft, charming, and beautifully attractive.

▣ Texture & Feel
• Soft and warm merino base with subtle elasticity
• Sparkling paillettes throughout, adding dimension and glamour
• Ideal for festive, elegant, and evening wear projects

▣ Recommended Uses
• Sweaters, cardigans, and jackets with a touch of sparkle
• Dresses, tops, and evening shawls
• Accessories like hats, scarves, and glamorous wraps

⌁ Tips & Recommendations
• The sequins create a delicate texture—use simple stitches to let the yarn shine
• For softer drape, consider using needles slightly larger than standard fingering recommendations
• Pair with plain merino or mohair yarn to tone down sparkle and add warmth
• Wooden needles are recommended, as sequins may occasionally catch on metal needles
• Avoid complex stitch patterns—stockinette or simple designs showcase the sequins best
• Block gently with steam, avoiding direct pressure on the sequins
• Perfect for fall/winter garments and holiday evening wear
• Can also be held double to achieve a DK-like gauge and create denser, warmer fabrics

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.

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.
