Description
Island by Cariaggi is pure cashmere with the soft halo and luxurious hand this fibre is prized for. This 3-ply yarn in fingering weight runs 433 metres per 100g. Hand knitters can use 3.25-4mm needles at about 22-24 stitches per 10cm. Machine knitters should run single ends at standard 5gg. The yarn ships lightly oiled and must be washed after knitting to bloom properly. Grigio offers a sophisticated grey tone. Expect gentle pilling with wear - normal for cashmere. Perfect for lightweight jumpers and accessories.
