With approximately \u003cstrong data-start=\"230\" data-end=\"266\"\u003e160 meters \/ 175 yards per 100 g\u003c\/strong\u003e, this is a richly textured yarn that creates a bold, airy, and highly visual fabric. Rather than behaving like a regular round cotton yarn, GRAFFITO produces a more ribbon-like, structured effect in the knitted fabric, with visible openness, dimensional texture, and a refined contrast between matte softness and subtle shine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"595\" data-end=\"998\"\u003eThis yarn is especially appealing for makers who want the fabric itself to make the statement. The cotton gives body, breathability, and everyday wearability, while the viscose adds light reflection and a more polished finish. The result is a yarn that feels modern, graphic, and elegant — perfect for simple silhouettes, clean stitch patterns, and projects where texture matters more than complication.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1000\" data-end=\"1323\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1000\" data-end=\"1028\"\u003e▣ Product Specifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1028\" data-end=\"1031\"\u003e• Manufacturer: Mister Joe, Italy\u003cbr data-start=\"1064\" data-end=\"1067\"\u003e• Article: GRAFFITO\u003cbr data-start=\"1086\" data-end=\"1089\"\u003e• Fiber Content: 71% Cotton, 29% Viscose\u003cbr data-start=\"1129\" data-end=\"1132\"\u003e• Yarn Category: Aran \/ Structured Textural Yarn\u003cbr data-start=\"1180\" data-end=\"1183\"\u003e• Yardage: approx. 160 m \/ 175 yd per 100 g (3.52 oz)\u003cbr data-start=\"1236\" data-end=\"1239\"\u003e• Formats: Balls (BY DEFAULT) or Cones (PLEASE PURCHASE)\u003cbr data-start=\"1295\" data-end=\"1298\"\u003e• Origin: Made in Italy\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1325\" data-end=\"1628\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1325\" data-end=\"1345\"\u003e⌁ Texture \u0026amp; Feel\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1345\" data-end=\"1348\"\u003e• Structured, airy, and textural\u003cbr data-start=\"1380\" data-end=\"1383\"\u003e• Cotton softness with subtle viscose sheen\u003cbr data-start=\"1426\" data-end=\"1429\"\u003e• Creates a ribbon-like, graphic fabric effect\u003cbr data-start=\"1475\" data-end=\"1478\"\u003e• Open and breathable rather than dense\u003cbr data-start=\"1517\" data-end=\"1520\"\u003e• More architectural than a standard round cotton yarn\u003cbr data-start=\"1574\" data-end=\"1577\"\u003e• Bold visual texture with a modern designer look\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1630\" data-end=\"1958\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1630\" data-end=\"1660\"\u003e⚑ Why This Yarn Is Special\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1660\" data-end=\"1663\"\u003eGRAFFITO stands out because the finished fabric looks far more interesting than ordinary cotton blends. Even in simple knitting, the yarn creates an open, dimensional surface with strong visual texture and a very modern character. It feels bold and structured, yet still breathable and wearable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1960\" data-end=\"2223\"\u003eThe cotton gives the yarn body and natural softness, while the viscose adds elegance, movement, and light reflection. This balance makes GRAFFITO especially beautiful for garments and accessories where shape, texture, and fabric character should remain the focus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2225\" data-end=\"2578\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2225\" data-end=\"2250\"\u003e⋔ Swatch Observations\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"2250\" data-end=\"2253\"\u003eIn the swatch, GRAFFITO creates a beautifully open and breathable fabric with strong stitch definition and visible texture. The fabric looks structured without feeling heavy, and the yarn shows a clear contrast between matte softness and a slightly shinier accent. The overall look is modern, sculptural, and highly textural.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2580\" data-end=\"2854\"\u003eThis swatch also shows that GRAFFITO works especially well in simple stitches, where the yarn itself can stay the focus. It creates a clean, graphic, almost architectural effect that is ideal for contemporary garments, statement accessories, and refined home décor projects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2856\"
