From the guides
- GuideWhat makes a yarn "premium"?What you are paying for when a yarn costs more — fiber fineness in microns, staple length, how it was spun and plied, dye consistency, traceable sourcing — how to tell it on the needles, when a cheap yarn is the better buy, and the lines we stock at each end.
- GuideYarn brands we stock, and what each is known forThe 24 yarn and needle brands on our shelves, grouped by what they do best — hand-dyed merino, self-striping and gradient yarns, American and British wool, alpaca, luxury fibers, summer cottons and linens, needles — with the line to start with from each.
- GuideYarn for shawls, and how much a shawl takesWhich weights and fibers make a shawl drape, bloom and block — fingering, lace, mohair-silk, alpaca, silk blends — how many yards a shawlette, a medium shawl, a large wrap and a lace shawl take by weight, why blocking is half the yarn choice, and the shawl yarns we stock.
More from Zitron
Atelier Zitron is a small German mill that works only in extrafine merino and says exactly where it comes from. Feinheit is an ultrafine superwash merino fingering — soft enough for a baby, washable, and a favourite for lightweight sweaters — and Form & Farbe is the opposite end of the scale, a super-bulky slubbed merino for a scarf in an hour.
