Lana Grossa Milano

Lana Grossa Milano is a soft, lightly brushed yarn from Lana Grossa, made from 50% baby alpaca, 40% virgin merino wool and 10% polyamide. The yarn has a slightly fluffy surface and is characterised by its refined, two-tone shades, which create a subtle play of colour in the finished knitted fabric. The combination of baby alpaca and merino wool gives the yarn a soft wool quality with a distinctive appearance.

Uses
Milano is suitable for knitted jumpers, cardigans, tops and various types of accessories such as hats, scarves and shawls. The lightly brushed surface and two-tone shades make the yarn particularly interesting for projects where its texture and colour variation are intended to form part of the finished appearance.

Product benefits

• Baby alpaca and merino wool: The yarn contains 50% baby alpaca and 40% virgin merino wool combined with 10% polyamide, providing a soft yarn quality with a lightly brushed surface.
• Refined two-tone shades: The yarn's colour composition creates a subtle yet lively play of colour, giving knitted projects a distinctive appearance.
• Lightly brushed texture: The soft, slightly fluffy surface adds a decorative texture to the finished knitted fabric, which works well with both simple and more detailed stitch patterns.

Tips for use
Choose simple stitch patterns such as stocking stitch or ribbing if you want to highlight the yarn's brushed surface and two-tone shades. The yarn can also be used for larger garment projects, where the colour variation has room to develop across the surface. Make a tension swatch using the recommended 4.50-5.50 mm needles to check your tension and assess the yarn's texture in the finished fabric.

Why choose this yarn?
Lana Grossa Milano is a good choice if you want a soft yarn containing baby alpaca and merino wool with a refined, two-tone appearance. The combination of its lightly brushed surface, coordinated colour shades and soft texture makes it suitable for both garments and knitted accessories.
