Boasting an incredibly generous 1000 meters (1094 yards) per 100g, this remarkably fine yarn combines highly breathable summer comfort, gentle elasticity, crisp stitch definition, and unmatched shape retention. Its smooth, technical cord construction creates featherlight knitted and woven fabrics with a clean, minimalist appearance while providing outstanding flexibility.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6\"\u003eWhat makes MOCCIMEN truly special is its innovative combination of high-grade cotton and structural stretch. Unlike traditional cotton yarns that can gradually sag, stretch out, or lose their memory during wear, MOCCIMEN offers a resilient, snappy elasticity that allows finished garments to move naturally with the body while instantly recovering their original shape. The smooth multi-ply cord structure yields beautifully crisp stitch definition and excellent durability, making it perfect for everyday luxury staples and modern designer silhouettes alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003eDespite its extra-fine meterage, MOCCIMEN is intended to be combined in two or more strands for hand knitting. Held double, it creates a lightweight yet beautifully structured fabric with responsive elasticity and excellent recovery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8\"\u003eRare Japanese mill-stock yarns like MOCCIMEN are originally produced exclusively for commercial luxury fashion manufacturers and are seldom available to the public. Once these limited mill lots are gone, they cannot be reproduced or reordered, making each cone a unique opportunity to work with authentic Japanese textile engineering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1751\" data-end=\"2155\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1751\" data-end=\"1779\"\u003e▣ Product Specifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e• Manufacturer: SATO SENI Co., Ltd., Japan\u003cbr\u003e• Article: MOCCIMEN\u003cbr\u003e• Fiber Content: Cotton with Elastane (approximately 90% Cotton \/ 10% Elastane)\u003cbr\u003e• Yarn Category: E\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003extra-Fine Lace Weight\u003cbr\u003e• Yarn Structure: \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eine Multi-Ply Stretch Cord Yarn\u003cbr\u003e• Yarn Count: Nm 1\/10\u003cbr\u003e• Yardage: Approximately 1000m \/ 1094yd per 100g (3.52 oz)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e• Formats: Balls (BY DEFAULT) or Cones (PLEASE PURCHASE)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e• Origin: Made in Japan\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2365\" data-end=\"2526\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2365\" data-end=\"2385\"\u003e⌁ Texture \u0026amp; Feel\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2386\" data-end=\"2409\"\u003eSoft Natural Cotton\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe high cotton content creates a smooth, breathable yarn that feels soft and comfortable directly against the skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2528\" data-end=\"2686\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2528\" data-end=\"2555\"\u003eGentle Built-In Stretch\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe elastane provides comfortable elasticity that improves freedom of movement while helping garments retain their original shape.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2688\" data-end=\"2824\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2688\" data-end=\"2716\"\u003eSmooth Cord Construction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe unique cord structure produces exceptionally clean stitch definition with a refined, modern appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2826\" data-end=\"2977\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2826\" data-end=\"2855\"\u003eExcellent Shape Retention\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFinished garments recover beautifully after wear and are less likely to stretch out compared to traditional cotton yarns.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2979\" data-end=\"3130\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2979\" data-end=\"3008\"\u003eLightweight Breathability\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCotton provides outstanding airflow, making this yarn especially comfortable for spring, summer, and year-round layering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"3132\" data-end=\"3325\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"3132\" data-end=\"3164\"\u003eExceptional Everyday Comfort\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe combination of natural cotton and gentle elasticity creates fabrics that are comfortable to wear throughout the day while maintaining an elegant appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"3327\" data-end=\"3681\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"3327\" data-end=\"3357\"\u003e⚑ Why This Yarn Is Special\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMOSCIMEN combines the comfort and breathability of premium Cotton with the practical benefits of gentle elasticity.
