Delicato: 100 % Tencel® 4 oz/ 630
yds Laceweight, so gauge is variable. Our lace sample below,
worked on # 5 needles, came out around 4 1/2 sts per inch. Triple strand
on # 9 needles, about 4 per inch.
This lovely lace yarn is a terrific substitute for more costly silk. Lustrous,
smooth and silky, the hand is superior with beautiful stitch definition
and blocking retention. Tencel® is ten times more absorbant than cotton,
stretches less than rayon, and is environmentally friendly (made from
sustainable trees and in a closed-loop system that re-uses all chemicals).
Delicato is available in all of our
hand dyed colors.
