A truly exceptional and extremely rare yarn crafted from 100% combed cashmere, originally produced for Loro Piana — one of the most prestigious names in luxury textiles. SUPER CASHMERE represents the highest tier of Italian yarn production, where only the longest, finest cashmere fibers are selected and meticulously combed to achieve unparalleled softness, strength, and refinement.
Combed cashmere is prized for its silky hand, resistance to pilling, and superior durability compared to standard cashmere. This ultra-fine lace yarn is produced in very limited quantities and is increasingly difficult to source, making it a true collector’s piece for luxury knitwear, couture garments, and fine textile work.

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.
