With the creation of beautiful "Moda Lame," the yarn gurus at Filatura Di Crosa have fully embraced the novelty yarn craze. Beautifully spun in Italy of 95% acrylic & 5% metallic, "Moda Lame" is a sparkling netting yarn that gives you auto ruffling (just spread the netting apart and pick up your stitches through the "holes" that form the net). "Moda Lame" is a looser netting yarn than many of the others on the market today so that it is easier to pick up stitches and knit or crochet. And just one 50-gram ball will give you a dressy long scarf!
