Austermann Cashmere Lace Colour 2 Hemp – Cashmere Yarn with Silk
Cashmere Lace in Colour 2 Hemp is a fine lace yarn made from 75% cashmere and 25% silk. Colour 2 Hemp is a warm, subtle natural tone with a slightly earthy effect. The shade accentuates the luxurious character of the cashmere-silk yarn without being obtrusive.
The colour is particularly well-suited for light cardigans, casual layering designs, and delicate scarves. Texture patterns and立体ribs appear calm and even in Hemp, while the silk provides a subtle shimmer. With a run length of approx. 200 metres per 20-gram ball, the yarn is exceptionally economical. A needle size of 2.5 to 3.5 mm is recommended; for a size 40 jumper, approximately 120 g are needed, depending on the model, pattern, and desired width.
Hemp combines beautifully with natural white, olive, chocolate, or Bordeaux. This creates both natural tone-on-tone looks and elegant, contrasting colour combinations. The soft feel makes Cashmere Lace a good choice for knitted items worn directly on the skin.
