Linen Sequin Yarn, GG Filati BELLINO, Italian Linen Paillette Yarn, Balls or Cones, 400m/100g
If you love linen but want something a little more special, BELLINO offers the perfect balance of natural elegance and subtle sparkle. This beautiful Italian yarn combines 100% linen with clear 2 mm paillettes that catch the light without overwhelming the fabric. The result is sophisticated knitwear with texture, drape, breathability, and just enough shimmer to make every project feel unique.
Unlike heavily embellished yarns, BELLINO remains refined and wearable. The linen creates crisp stitch definition, beautiful summer drape, and excellent durability, while the transparent paillettes add a delicate glow that works equally well for casual luxury garments and elegant evening pieces. After washing, the linen relaxes, softens, and develops the effortless character that makes high-quality linen so beloved among knitters.

⚑ Why This Yarn Is Special
BELLINO combines two qualities that are rarely found together: the timeless beauty of pure linen and the understated glamour of transparent paillettes.
The clear sequins blend into the yarn and create a gentle shimmer instead of obvious sparkle. This makes BELLINO incredibly versatile. It can create elegant summer tops, lightweight cardigans, sophisticated shawls, and evening garments without looking flashy.
The linen base provides durability, breathability, and excellent stitch definition, making lace patterns, textured stitches, and simple stockinette equally beautiful.
✦ Fiber Profile
• Linen — breathable, durable, moisture-wicking, and cool to wear
• Clear Paillettes — subtle sparkle, light reflection, and elegant visual texture
• Combined Effect — refined summer luxury with beautiful drape and sophistication
✦ Linen Characteristics
Like all quality linen yarns, BELLINO has very little elasticity and may feel slightly firm while knitting. This is completely normal.
After the first wash:
• Fabric relaxes noticeably
• Stitches become more even
• Drape improves
• Linen softens significantly
With continued wear and washing, the fabric becomes increasingly soft while maintaining excellent durability.

⚑ 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 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.
