This rare and radiant yarn is produced by RiGo, one of Italy’s premier mills known for crafting luxurious blends for European fashion houses. SAINT TROPEZ combines natural linen and delicate silk with a subtle twinkle from 2mm silver micro paillettes — creating a fiber that feels fresh, breathable, and gently luminous. It’s perfect for creating garments that feel cool against the skin but look effortlessly refined.

✨ Texture & Feel:
This yarn is a dream for summer projects. Crisp, dry, and cool, the linen offers that signature breathable structure, while the silk softens it just enough for a more fluid drape. The silver paillettes (just 2mm in size) are tiny but impactful — catching the light subtly, never overwhelming. The overall effect is an understated shimmer on a rustic-luxury base that gets softer and more beautiful with each wear and wash.

🧶 Recommended Uses:
Perfect for elevated warm-weather garments and accessories:
✨ Summer tops, elegant cardigans, breezy tunics, wrap shawls, festival wear, or lightweight evening layers with a hint of sparkle.

🧷 Recommended Needles/Hooks:
Knitting needles: US 1–3 (2.25–3.25 mm)
Crochet hook: B-1 to D-3 (2.25–3.25 mm)
Gauge and drape may vary depending on your technique and stitch pattern — always swatch if possible!

🧵 Weaving Suitability:
SAINT TROPEZ can be used for weaving, but with care and intention. The linen and silk base provides strength, while the 2mm silver paillettes add texture and shimmer. Due to the presence of paillettes, this yarn is best suited as a decorative weft rather than warp.
Recommended for artistic accents, textured scarves, trims, or lightweight decorative panels. Use simple structures and avoid high tension for best results.

📌 Please note: Cone yarns may have a light industrial wax coating. A few gentle washes will allow the linen and silk fibers to fully bloom into their softest and most luxurious state.

📸 Please Note:
The amount of yarn shown on cones in the photos may not reflect the actual quantity you’ll receive. Yarn is custom-wound per your order.
Colors are photographed in natural lighting but may appear slightly different depending on your screen settings. I highly recommend zooming in on each photo to fully appreciate the yarn’s texture and sparkle.
