📍 CONES ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THE YARN PRICE.
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 the shipping cost associated with different packaging sizes and the self-cost of the cone. No hidden fees, no inflated markups—just honest, straightforward pricing.

✨ Texture & Feel:
This is a VERY SOFT furry thread, structured by the Polyamide core to give the yarn stability while allowing the Merino fibers to bloom into a light, soft halo. The result is a luxurious, cloud-like fabric that is warm without being heavy.

🧶 A Note from the Knitter
The sample shown was knit with a single strand using US size 3 (3.25mm) needles, demonstrating the soft loft of the single strand. This yarn is versatile; use it for delicate shawls, or hold it double for a quick, fluffy DK weight sweater.

🧶 Recommended Use:
Ideal for light and soft garments that benefit from the fuzzy texture and Merino warmth.
• Garments: Lightweight sweaters, delicate cardigans, and cozy vests.
• Accessories: Scarves, cowls, and soft, lofty shawls.
• Stitch Patterns: Best used in simple patterns to showcase the fur texture and softness.

🧶 Knitting with Multiple Strands
• 2 Threads: Creates a DK weight yarn with an approximate yardage of 200m(246yd) per 100g.

🧶Recommendations for Weaving:
The PELUCE yarn is highly recommended for the weft in handwoven accessories like scarves, blankets, and throws. Its high Merino content and furry texture will add excellent insulation, an incredibly soft hand, and a beautiful loft to your woven fabric.

🧶 Recommended Needles & Hooks (Based on Single-Thread Knitting):
• For knitting with one thread (creating a Sport weight), we recommend 2.5–3.5 mm (US 1.5–4) needles. The general gauge is 24–28 stitches per 4 inches (10 cm) in stockinette stitch. Use the smaller end of the range (2.5mm) for a denser, more structured fabric, and the larger end (3.5mm) for a softer, loftier drape.
• For crochet, use hooks in the range of 2.5–3.5 mm (C-2 to E-4).

📏 Estimated Usage:
• Fine Shawl (Single Strand): 100–150g
• Sweater (Single Strand/Sport): 300–450g

📍Care Instructions:
• Gentle hand wash with cold water; lay flat to dry for best results.
• Do not wring, twist, or tumble dry.

📍 Please note:
Most yarn prepared on cones for machine knitting is lightly waxed to ensure smooth running. Once knit, it should be washed to reveal its true softness. This yarn is perfect for both hand and machine knitting, highly recommended for creating premium-quality knitwear.

📸 Please Note:
• The amount of yarn shown on cones in the photos may not reflect the actual quantity you’ll receive. Yarn is custom-wound per your order.
• Colors are photographed in natural lighting but may appear slightly different depending on your screen settings. I recommend zooming in on each photo to fully appreciate the beauty and texture of the yarn.
• ±1–2g variation per 100g may occur due to the winding process.
• Each ball/cone is wound with care and packed securely to ensure it reaches you in perfect condition.
