Sheila's Glitter - Sample Skein

This beautiful yarn lends a gold sparkle to your knitted fabric, and stands elegantly against light or dark colorways. Set against our springy superwash merino, add in nylon for stability and you have a yarn which makes a statement!

The blend is 75% Superwash Merino with 20% Nylon, and 5% Gold toned Stellina (polyamide). Stellina is a soft non-metal fiber, with none of the harshness that can sometime come with sparkle yarns containing metalized fibers.  

This is the goldtoned version of our other Stellina yarn, Sheila's Sparkle. It joins Sparkle as the newest addition to the popular Sheila's line mirrors the famous 2 plies in that perfect twist.

Note:  too much acid in the dye bath can result in the dulling of the stellina, and the fiber will not sparkle, especially dark colours can also be absorbed by the stellina and change the colour.  A light hand with the intensity of the dye and acid solution as you learn to dye this fiber, and marvel at the lovely results.
