This is a high-twist yarn with a subtle, silver sparkle running through it. The twist makes it a perfect sock yarn, giving the yarn robustness and spring. It sucks up the dye, and speckles really well. It also works nicely for glazing techniques. Colours appear bright and clear. See our tips on dyeing stellina. Please note the reason this yarn is not OEKO-TEX® certified is because of the stellina content. The knitted fabric is bouncy and soft, amazing for socks and whatever you fancy!
