➤ Recommended Uses
• Carry-along yarn paired with merino, silk, mohair, alpaca, cashmere, cotton, linen, or plant fibers
• Decorative accents for shawls, scarves, sweaters, and cardigans
• Edgings, borders, trims, and yoke highlights
• Holiday knits and evening wear
• Multi-strand shimmer for artistic or textural effects
This yarn is not intended for use alone and performs best as a companion yarn.

✧ Blend Recommendations
This ultra-fine viscose/lurex yarn blends beautifully with almost any fiber:
• Merino (all microns)
• Mohair (single or multiple strands)
• Alpaca and alpaca blends
• Cashmere and cashmere blends
• Silk, mulberry silk, bourette silk
• Cotton, linen, bamboo, modal, viscose
• Synthetic base yarns (nylon, acrylic) for added shine
• Bouclé, tweed, melange, or textured yarns
• Lace, fingering, sport, DK, and lightweight yarns
Effect: adds refined sparkle, visual depth, and a luxurious finish without affecting gauge.

⋔ Suggested Needle Size
• Follow the needle size of the main yarn
• Yarn does not change gauge when used as an accent
This yarn is not recommended for standalone knitting.

✦ Weaving Suitability
• Excellent as a decorative weft to add shimmer
• Best used as an accent thread rather than structural warp
• Works beautifully with cotton, linen, silk, merino, or mohair warps

⫯ Care Instructions
• Hand wash cold
• Use mild detergent
• Do not wring or twist
• Lay flat to dry

Formats: Cones ONLY

⚑ FOR YARN AVAILABLE ON CONES ONLY AND SOLD IN VARIOUS WOUND WEIGHTS, each color is wound on a single cone by default. If you prefer the same color split across multiple cones, additional cones may be purchased separately HERE

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.
