⚑ Why This Yarn Is Special
CASH-COTON delivers the iconic look of Milan runway knitwear for a fraction of the cost. Unlike many inexpensive novelty sequin yarns, the tiny paillettes are integrated into a premium natural-fiber base, creating an elegant sparkle without overwhelming the fabric.

★ Why Knitters Love CASH-COTON
• Rare Italian mill yarn unavailable in regular retail stores
• Elegant micro-paillettes create refined sparkle—not glitter
• Lightweight 1000m/100g lace weight for endless versatility
• Beautiful alone or held with mohair, merino, silk, cashmere, or alpaca
• Breathable enough for spring and summer garments
• Exceptional stitch definition for lace and textured knitting
• Adds instant luxury to simple stockinette projects
• Ideal for both hand knitting and machine knitting
➤ IMPORTANT — Yarn Usage & Profile
• Excellent for Holding Double: Because it's lace weight, CASH-COTON is an exceptional companion yarn. Add it to cashmere, merino, mohair, alpaca, silk, or cotton to introduce elegant sparkle without significantly increasing the weight of your fabric.
• Perfect for Summer Luxury: The cotton keeps garments breathable while the cashmere softens the hand feel, making this blend ideal for lightweight luxury garments that can be worn directly against the skin.
• Elegant Day-to-Evening Sparkle: The tiny 2 mm paillettes create a refined shimmer visible in daylight and especially beautiful under evening lighting, making the same garment appropriate for casual wear or special occasions.
• Project Profiles: This versatile luxury strand is engineered for high-fashion summer tees, fine openwork cardigans, festive tops, lightweight layering camisoles, elegant evening shawls, and delicate lace overlays. Note: Sold as hand-wound balls by default (cones available upon request).
➤ How to Work with This Artisan Beauty
Crafters will enjoy crisp stitch definition and excellent control. The micro-sequins glide cleanly through your tensioning fingers without catching or binding on standard needles.
The Companion Trick: Knit it single-stranded for a sheer, ethereal lace layout, or hold it double or carry it alongside a companion yarn (like a fluffy mohair, fine merino, silk, or cashmere) to anchor your gauge and inject a beautiful, starry shimmer into any pattern.
The First Wash: A gentle hand-wash opens up the yarn structure completely, relaxing the cotton fibers and allowing the premium cashmere content to settle effortlessly around the sparkling paillettes.
➤ Recommended Pairings From iDOKNiT
• Linen: Combines crisp, rustic structure with high-fashion sequined elegance.
• Cotton: Boosts the thickness, stitch definition, and everyday durability of casual summer pullovers.
• Silk Noil / Pure Silk: Adds a beautiful, textured matte grain or luxurious fluid sheen that contrasts wonderfully with the shining sequins.
• Cashmere / Kid Mohair & Silk: Traps the sparkling 2 mm paillettes inside a romantic, dreamy, and ultra-soft runway cloud.
• Fine Merino: Lifts the gauge into a comfortable transition-season weight while maintaining an incredibly soft touch.
⟳ Care Instructions
Hand wash delicately in 30°C / 86°F water with mild, delicate-safe detergent. Do not wring or twist; press out excess water gently inside a clean towel. Lay flat to dry immediately away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not tumble dry. Steam finish gently from a distance to allow the premium natural fibers to settle flawlessly around the sequins.

⚑ 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.
