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. Colors appear bright and clear. The knitted fabric is bouncy and soft, amazing for socks and whatever you fancy!
Stellina can sometimes be damaged or dulled at high acidity. We have found that using less acid and a longer fixing time helps. Vinegar tends to cause less damage as it’s a weaker acid.
Please note the reason this yarn is not OEKO-TEX® certified is because of the stellina content.
