Discover the elegance of Cariaggi Kashsilk, an exceptional lace-weight yarn expertly spun in Italy from a luxurious blend of 35% cashmere, 35% virgin wool, and 30% silk. This carefully balanced composition combines the incomparable softness and warmth of cashmere with the elasticity and durability of fine virgin wool, while silk lends a subtle natural sheen and fluid drape that enhances every finished piece.
Its fine 1/56 construction makes Kashsilk remarkably versatile. Knit with a single strand, it creates delicate, lightweight fabrics with beautiful drape, making it ideal for lace shawls, fine sweaters, and elegant accessories. Alternatively, hold two, three, or more strands together to create a thicker yarn with increased warmth and structure, perfect for luxurious hand-knitted sweaters, cardigans, hats, and scarves. Combining multiple strands also creates a fuller fabric while preserving the yarn's signature softness and refined appearance.
The yarn produces beautifully even stitches and a smooth, elegant finish, allowing both simple stockinette and intricate stitch patterns to shine. Whether used alone or combined with itself or other fine yarns, Kashsilk offers exceptional flexibility for knitters seeking complete creative freedom.
As part of our carefully curated collection of premium Italian deadstock yarns, Cariaggi Kashsilk offers access to one of the world's finest luxury spinning mills. Available only in limited quantities, it is an exceptional choice for heirloom-quality knitwear that celebrates timeless Italian craftsmanship, exceptional fibers, and understated luxury.
