With its gentle drape and silky sheen, this yarn transforms into refined, modern knitwear that feels weightless, elegant, and beautifully textured.

✨ Texture & Feel
Lightweight, smooth, and naturally lustrous, this yarn combines the softness of merino with the elegant sheen of silk. The thread feels gentle against the skin, offering a refined drape ideal for delicate garments. Piccadilly blooms subtly after washing, enhancing its softness while maintaining its polished silk glow. Perfect for pieces that require refinement without heaviness.

🧶 Recommended Uses
Perfect for:
• Lightweight sweaters, tops, and layering pieces
• Shawls, scarves, and wraps
• Baby garments and sensitive-skin projects
• Minimalist garments with elegant drape
• Silk-blend knitwear inspired by luxury Italian fashion

🧶 Blending Recommendations
This yarn pairs exceptionally well with:
• Silk: amplifies sheen and drape
• Merino or Cashmere: adds warmth and softness
• Mohair/Silk lace: creates a haloed, modern texture
• Alpaca: enhances drape and softness
• Linen or Cotton: adds crisp definition with a subtle glow
Hold Piccadilly together with 1–2 strands of another fiber for depth, sheen, and body.

🪡 Recommended Needles & Hooks
This yarn works beautifully starting from a single thread.
• Knitting Needles: 3.0–4.0 mm (US 2.5–6)
• Crochet Hook: 2.5–3.5 mm (US B–E)
For fuller fabrics or multi-strand knitting, use 4.0–5.0 mm (US 6–8).

📏 Estimated Yarn Usage (Single Thread – Lace/Light Fingering Equivalent)
• Shawl or Wrap: 150–250 g (approx. 700–1170 m / 760–1280 yd)
• Lightweight Top: 200–300 g (approx. 940–1410 m / 1020–1540 yd)
• Scarf or Cowl: 80–150 g (approx. 380–705 m / 414–770 yd)
• Edges / Decorative Work: 20–50 g

🧵 Weaving Recommendations
Excellent as a weft yarn for soft, elegant fabrics with sheen. When combined with structural fibers like silk, linen, or wool, it produces refined drapey textiles. Use mainly as weft; for warp applications, combine with a stronger supporting yarn. Sett: 10–12 EPI for soft, glow-enhanced fabrics.

📍 Care Instructions
• Hand wash gently in cold water with mild detergent
• Do not wring or twist
• Reshape and lay flat to dry away from direct sunlight

🧶 Formats: Balls (BY DEFAULT) or Cones (PLEASE PURCHASE)

📍 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. PLEACE 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 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.
