Yarnart Alpaca Gold Paillettes Black Hand Knitting Yarn 9314

Product description

Yarnart alpaca gold paillettes is a premium hand knitting yarn series that combines the natural alpaca fiber with modern sequin detailing in a single strand. its special blend of 20% alpaca, 5% polyester, and 75% acrylic offers the softness of natural fibers along with the durability and shape retention benefits of synthetic materials.

The most striking feature of this yarn is the sequins dispersed throughout the entire skein. this sequin detail creates a shimmering, eye-catching surface effect both during knitting and in the finished product. this feature allows you to achieve a luxurious and exclusive look without the need for extra accessories or embellishments, making alpaca gold paillettes particularly ideal for evening wear, special occasion accessories, and trendy hand-knitted projects.

This fine-gauge yarn is available in 50g skeins, approximately 180 meters in length. we recommend using 3.5mm needles or crochet hooks to achieve delicate, tight stitches. the series offers a wide palette of 19 different colors, ranging from neutral tones to vibrant hues, creating aesthetically pleasing combinations with a subtle shimmer effect.

Care instructions

Due to the alpaca content and the flake detail, alpaca gold paillettes require more careful maintenance than standard acrylic yarns:

Washing

• Hand washing or machine washing should be preferred with wool/delicate program.
• The water temperature should be maximum 30°c; high temperature will felt alpaca fibers.
• A mild liquid detergent or wool shampoo should be used.
• Bleach, bleach and enzyme detergents should definitely not be used.
• During washing, rubbing and twisting movements should be avoided; the sequin detail may be damaged.

Drying

• It should definitely not be put in the dryer.
• After washing, it should be dried by laying it flat on a surface and shaping it.
• It should not be left in direct sunlight; alpaca fibers and flake shine may fade.
• The product should not be hung on the hanger when it is wet to avoid sagging.

Ironing and storage

• Ironing should be avoided if possible. if necessary, use a steam iron on a non-contact setting.
• Yarns should be stored in breathable bags, in a cool and dry environment, to prevent moth damage.
• The details of the stamp may be damaged by friction, so the balls should be kept separately.
• Completed products should be stored folded (not hung on a hanger).
