An exceptional luxury lace yarn from Todd & Duncan, one of Scotland’s most respected and historic cashmere mills. Spun from 100% pure cashmere, this ultra-fine yarn is lightweight, refined, and incredibly soft, offering outstanding warmth with minimal weight. Designed for professional-quality knitwear and refined multi-strand work, it is a true connoisseur’s fiber.
This is an extra-fine lace cashmere (Nm 2/28) and is not intended to be used in a single strand. It performs best when worked in multiple strands, allowing precise control over fabric weight, drape, and density.

⋔ Weaving Recommendations
Best suited for weft in fine luxury fabrics. Use with a stronger warp such as silk, merino, or cotton. Produces soft, warm, elegant cloth with refined texture. Not recommended as warp without reinforcement.
⟳ Care Instructions
Hand wash gently in cool water using mild cashmere or wool detergent. Do not wring or twist. Lay flat to dry away from heat. Fabric softens and blooms after washing.
