Questions about PAILLETTES

What can I make with PAILLETTES?

LANG Paillettes adds a delicate sequin sparkle to knitting. Hold it together with another yarn for everyday accents or festive pieces. Simple stitch patterns let the sequins stand out; knit a swatch before a larger project to check the drape and elasticity.

What is this yarn made from?

55% nylon, 45% polyester.

What weight and length does it come in?

The supplied yarn weight is 25 g, with approximately 112 m. Use the length as well as the weight when comparing yarns.

Which needle size should I use?

Choose needles for your pattern and the fabric you want. If this is held with another yarn, use the needle size and gauge for the combined strands.

What knitting gauge should I expect?

knit a swatch before beginning a larger project, as sequins may slightly affect drape and elasticity. This is a guide; check your own swatch against the pattern.

How do I work out how much yarn to order?

For a single-strand project, divide the pattern’s total required metres by 112 m and round up to a whole number of units. If you are changing yarns or holding strands together, recalculate the total length and check gauge.

How should I wash the finished piece?

Hand wash using detergent for delicate fabrics without fabric softener.

Can I hold it together with another yarn?

Use a pattern designed for the combined strands, or swatch first to check the gauge and feel. Holding yarns together changes the fabric and the amount you need. Follow the most delicate yarn’s care instructions.

Should I buy the full project quantity at once?

Plan the full quantity before ordering. The same shade code can look slightly different across dye batches, so check the lot numbers on the labels. A later purchase may come from a different batch.

How do I choose a shade from the photos?

Choose a shade of PAILLETTES by its name and code. Screen settings and lighting can change how the colour appears; keep the code when checking or reordering your chosen shade.
