A delightful, classic yarn with a strand of lurex running through it – this looks super attractive in the skein, once dyed. When knitted, Shimmer Fingering 4ply gives a nice stitch definition and the resulting fabric is soft. The yarn sucks up the dye and speckles well. Lurex is a robust fibre which can take high heat and acid, and does not get damaged during the dyeing process, keeping the sparkle strong.
