This is a super-delicate lace yarn with little boucle slubs and a subtle sparkle. The yarn takes the dye well, but it really comes to life when it’s been knitted and blocked. It creates a beautiful, delicately-textured fabric. This is what we would consider an ‘art’ yarn and it is perfect for people who love something a little different. It is also gorgeous stranded with a super-thin, fluff yarn. Please see our notes on dyeing silk and stellina. Please note the reason this yarn is not OEKO-TEX® certified is because of the stellina.
