Nm 2×2/120 • Approx. 3000m per 100g • Made in Italy
Cariaggi Menfi 2×2/120 is an exquisite Italian yarn spun from 50% silk and 50% cotton, balancing the luminous sheen and fluidity of silk with the crisp, breathable character of cotton. The four-ply construction creates a smooth, refined yarn with excellent strength, a clean stitch definition, and an elegant, understated texture.
With its fine count, Menfi is ideal for lightweight garments and accessories that benefit from beautiful drape and a cool, comfortable feel. The silk enhances softness and gives the fabric a subtle lustre, while the cotton adds structure, durability, and a natural matte contrast that creates depth within the finished fabric. Supplied on a cone, Menfi is perfectly suited to hand knitting, machine knitting, and weaving, making it an exceptional choice for luxurious summer sweaters, tops, shawls, and scarves.
