xperience the timeless elegance of Italian summer knitting with G&G FILATI LINO 360 + PAILLETTES. This exquisite Italian yarn combines 100% premium flax linen with delicate 1–2 mm silver paillettes and an ultra-fine midnight blue lurex thread that appears almost black. Together they create a beautifully understated shimmer that catches the light with quiet sophistication while preserving the natural beauty of pure linen.

Unlike novelty sparkle yarns, the tiny paillettes and fine lurex are seamlessly integrated into the strand, enhancing the fabric without overpowering it. Linen remains the star—offering crisp stitch definition, exceptional breathability, beautiful texture, and a naturally cool touch that becomes softer with every wash.

With approximately 360 meters (394 yards) per 100g, this fingering-weight yarn is perfect for elegant summer sweaters, lightweight cardigans, tunics, dresses, airy tops, lace shawls, scarves, wraps, and sophisticated evening garments. Knit it alone to showcase its beautiful linen character and refined shimmer, or pair it with Kid Mohair, Silk, Cashmere, Fine Merino, Cotton, Alpaca, or another linen yarn to add softness, texture, and luxurious dimension.

Imported directly from Italy, this exceptional natural-fiber yarn brings timeless elegance and refined Italian craftsmanship to every project.

⌁ Texture & Feel
Pure Premium Linen
Naturally breathable, moisture-wicking, and exceptionally comfortable in warm weather. Premium flax linen provides beautiful stitch definition, excellent durability, and the unmistakable character that only natural linen can offer.

Elegant Silver Paillettes
Tiny 1–2 mm silver paillettes are delicately integrated into the strand, creating refined sparkle that catches the light with understated elegance rather than flashy shine.

Sophisticated Midnight Lurex
An ultra-fine midnight blue lurex, almost black, adds remarkable depth and a subtle metallic glow that beautifully complements the silver paillettes without dominating the fabric.

Beautiful Stitch Definition
The crisp linen structure highlights lace, textured stitches, simple stockinette, and openwork patterns with exceptional clarity.

Naturally Cool & Comfortable
Linen naturally regulates temperature and moisture, making garments feel cool, breathable, and comfortable throughout the warmest months.

Becomes Softer with Every Wash
Like all premium flax linen, this yarn gradually softens through washing and wearing while maintaining its strength, structure, and timeless beauty.

⚑ Why This Yarn Is Special
G&G FILATI is known for producing elegant Italian yarns that combine premium natural fibers with refined fashion details. LINO 360 + PAILLETTES beautifully reflects that philosophy. The delicate 1–2 mm silver paillettes and ultra-fine midnight blue lurex are integrated directly into the linen, creating sophisticated shimmer without sacrificing the natural beauty, breathability, or crisp stitch definition of pure flax.

Unlike heavily embellished novelty yarns, this yarn remains elegant and wearable. The sparkle is subtle enough for daytime garments yet refined enough for evening pieces, making it an exceptionally versatile choice for knitters who appreciate understated luxury.

⟳ Care Instructions
Hand wash gently in cool water (30°C / 86°F) using a mild detergent suitable for delicate natural fibers. Do not wring or twist. Press excess moisture into a clean towel and lay flat to dry away from direct sunlight or heat. Light steaming after drying will relax the fibers, enhance the drape, and reveal linen's beautiful natural texture and refined shimmer.

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.
