2/15 Extrafine Merino and Cashmere Yarn

In the field of high-quality knitwear, the choice of yarn plays a fundamental role in achieving garments that are comfortable, durable, and well-balanced. The composition and fineness of the fibers have a decisive impact on both the workability of the yarn and the final characteristics of the fabric.

The 2/15 – 70% Extrafine Merino and 30% Cashmere yarn combines two noble fibers selected to offer an ideal balance between lightness, softness, and strength.

The Extrafine Merino wool component provides a smooth, soft hand feel and excellent thermal and breathable properties. The Cashmere adds further fineness and comfort, making the yarn pleasant against the skin and stable over time.

From a technical perspective, the 2/15 count makes it suitable for both knitting machines (gauge 7–8 and 5 double) and hand knitting or crochet with needles or hooks size 2–3. This versatility allows for a wide range of applications, including lightweight sweaters, shawls, cardigans, baby garments, and multi-season accessories.

The yarn stands out for its dimensional stability and its ability to retain softness, shape, and appearance even after repeated use.

It is available in a selection of classic and contemporary shades, designed to combine easily and enhance the natural elegance of the fibers.

It can be worked single-stranded for fine and light garments, or double-stranded to achieve greater structure and warmth.
