Casasol Luxury Silk Yarn – Flower

Description

Looking for silk yarn in flower for a piece with drape and shine, without paying pure silk prices? Luxury blends 50% Mulberry silk and 50% Bemberg™ Cupro, a premium fiber made from cotton linters by Asahi Kasei (Japan). The result is a silky, fluid yarn with a natural sheen.

Color Flower: a delicate shade that changes with the light

Flower is a soft, luminous color. In silk, the natural sheen plays with the light and shifts the tone depending on the angle, so the piece looks a little different with every movement. It is a dusty, pale pink: romantic and never loud. It flatters pieces that frame the face, such as stoles, ponchos and summer tops, and pairs beautifully with neutrals like ecru, sand or pearl grey.

It is the yarn in the Xanath Poncho Kit, so you get the pattern and the yarn in one step. It also works beautifully in a lace top or a light stole. As a rough guide, a top usually takes 4 to 6 balls, depending on size and stitch.

Frequently asked questions
