🧵The yarn
Miss Tricot Filati's Viscose SUGAR CANE SEQUIN is a new generation summer yarn that combines sustainability and elegance. The base is made of viscose derived from sugar cane, a renewable vegetable fiber with a low environmental impact, enriched with luminous micro-sequins that add delicate reflections without weighing down the garment. Ideal for those looking for a fresh, silky yarn with a touch of natural light.
Each 50-gram ball offers approximately 150 meters of yarn, perfect for knitting with 3.5-4mm needles or crocheting with the same size hook. The texture is soft and smooth, with a fluid drape that enhances summer garments such as tops, light sweaters, and shawls for special occasions.
🧬Technical composition: why it works
Sugar cane viscose (97%) is a cellulosic fiber obtained from a renewable resource that grows quickly without the need for pesticides. Compared to traditional viscose, sugar cane viscose has a reduced environmental impact and maintains the same characteristics of softness, natural luster, and coolness to the touch. It is perfect for summer garments because it absorbs moisture and allows the skin to breathe, ensuring comfort even on the hottest days.
The 3% polyester in the form of micro-sequins adds a refined luminous effect without compromising the softness of the yarn. The sequins are uniformly integrated into the yarn, creating delicate reflections that enhance the finished garment without being excessive. This combination makes the yarn suitable for both casual projects and elegant creations for ceremonies and evening events.
📦Format and yield of the ball
Each ball weighs 50 grams and offers approximately 150 meters of yarn. With a single ball, you can make small accessories such as headbands, crochet bracelets, or swatches for larger projects. For a size M summer top, you will need about 3-4 balls, while for a medium shawl, 2-3 balls are sufficient depending on the chosen pattern.
We recommend purchasing all the necessary balls in a single solution to ensure color and dye lot uniformity. The micro-sequins may show slight variations in distribution between different lots, so it is important to work with balls from the same dye lot for a homogeneous result.
🧶Recommended processing
The yarn works perfectly with 3.5-4mm needles. This size ensures a soft yet compact fabric, ideal for garments that need to maintain their shape without being stiff. If you prefer a more openwork and lighter effect, you can use 4.5mm needles for airy summer creations. Viscose tends to relax slightly after washing, so it is important to always make a swatch and wash it before starting the final project.
With a 3.5-4mm crochet hook, the yarn performs very well in single crochet or half double crochet stitches, perfect for summer tops, elegant bags, and openwork shawls. The sequins do not hinder the work and glide easily between the stitches. Suitable for both beginners and experts: viscose is smooth and forgiving of small tension errors.
✨Why choose Viscose SUGAR CANE SEQUIN
Compared to traditional lurex or metallic yarns, this yarn offers a more delicate and natural luminous effect thanks to the micro-sequins. It does not itch, does not stiffen the fabric, and does not lose its shine after washing if treated correctly. Sugar cane viscose is more sustainable than synthetic fibers and keeps the skin cool even in summer, unlike many glitter effect yarns that tend to retain heat.
In everyday life, this yarn allows you to create elegant garments without sacrificing comfort. A top made with this yarn can be worn both during the day with jeans and in the evening for an aperitif or dinner, thanks to the luminous reflections that catch the light in a refined way. It is the ideal choice for those who want to stand out without overdoing it.
🎨What you can create
This yarn is perfect for elegant summer tops, light V-neck sweaters, openwork shawls for cool evenings, ceremonial stoles for weddings and events, luminous handbags for special occasions, and accessories such as headbands or shrugs for evening dresses. The combination of freshness and luminosity makes it versatile for both casual and formal projects.
👩🎨Who it is suitable for
This yarn is suitable for both beginners and experts. Viscose is smooth and easy to work with, the sequins do not hinder the work, and the final result is always elegant even with simple stitches. If you are a beginner, we recommend starting with a garter or stockinette stitch to get familiar with the yarn before moving on to more complex projects.
Those who purchase this yarn are mainly hobbyists looking for a special product for elegant summer projects, artisans who create custom garments for ceremonies, and those who want to give something unique handmade. It is particularly appreciated by those who love ecological yarns but do not want to give up a touch of light and refinement.
