⌁ Texture & Feel
EIFFEL offers a luxuriously soft, silky feel with a delicate mohair halo. The fabric is light, gently drapey, and refined. When washed, the mohair blooms beautifully, enhancing softness, creating a cloud-like texture, and adding warmth without weight. Ideal for knitters who love fine Italian yarns with maximum comfort and elegance.

➤ Recommended Uses
Perfect for:
• Lightweight sweaters and cardigans
• Shawls, wraps, lace accessories
• Holding together with another yarn for added body and texture
• Luxury layering garments
• Airy lace projects with a soft halo and drape

✧ Blending Recommendations
Pairs beautifully with:
• Silk — enhances shine and drape
• Merino — adds bounce and definition
• Cashmere — increases softness and warmth
• Alpaca — enriches loft and fullness
• Mohair/Silk blends — intensifies halo and airy elegance
Use EIFFEL single for ultra-lightweight fabrics, or double/triple for added structure and warmth.

⫯ Estimated Yarn Usage

• Lace Scarf: 60–120 g
• Cardigan: 250–350 g
• Light Accessories: 30–80 g
(Usage varies by strand count and desired drape.)

⟳ Weaving Recommendations
EIFFEL works beautifully as weft in lightweight, airy, halo-rich woven fabrics. Its Super Kid Mohair and Silk composition creates a soft, glowing surface with excellent drape and elegant texture.
• Single strand — extremely light, open, ethereal cloth with a delicate mohair halo
• Double strand — fuller, cohesive fabric with improved stability and warmth
• Triple strand — soft, warm textiles with a pronounced halo and gentle structure
• Best for weft: mohair performs exceptionally well when paired with smooth, stronger fibers in the warp (silk, tightly spun merino, fine wool)
• Not recommended for warp unless reinforced with a stronger companion yarn, due to the delicate, airy nature of mohair
Suggested Sett (EPI): 8–14, depending on strand count and desired openness, drape, and halo bloom.

⚑ Care Instructions
• Hand wash gently in cold water
• Use mild detergent for delicate fibers
• Do not wring; gently press out excess water
• Lay flat to dry
• Mohair halo improves and softens after washing

✦ Notes
Limited Italian mill stock — once sold out, it cannot be restocked.

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.

PLEACE 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.
