Alize Angora Gold Batik Yarn - 2 Skeins 200g 1204 Yards 20% Wool 80% Acrylic Turkish Knitting & Crochet Thread

About This Product

Calling all knitters and crocheters! This Alize Angora Gold Batik yarn is seriously gorgeous stuff - you get two full skeins totaling 200 grams with a massive 1204 yards to work with. The blend is 20% wool and 80% acrylic, giving you that lovely softness with great durability and easy care. Each skein weighs 3.53 ounces and gives you 550 meters (that's 601 yards) of fingering weight yarn that's perfect for delicate projects. The batik coloring is what really makes this special - those beautiful, subtle color transitions that create almost watercolor-like effects in your finished pieces. It's classified as weight 1 fingering & sock yarn, so it's ideal for lightweight shawls, delicate lacework, socks, or any project where you want drape and detail. Recommended needle size is 3-6 mm and crochet hooks 2-4 mm work perfectly. The care is super easy too - hand washable at 30??C (86??F), lay flat to dry, no bleaching, and low iron if needed. This Turkish yarn has that great reputation for quality that Alize is known for, with consistent thickness and minimal splitting as you work. The colors are rich and the slight wool content gives it just enough warmth without being heavy. I've used this for summer tops and it worked beautifully - the acrylic content means it holds its shape well while the wool adds that natural fiber feel. The yardage is fantastic for the price - you can make a substantial shawl with just these two skeins or multiple smaller projects. The batik effect means you get those beautiful color variations without having to change yarns or deal with pooling issues. It's smooth enough for intricate stitch patterns but has enough texture to show off simple designs beautifully. Whether you're making heirloom pieces or everyday wearables, this yarn delivers both beauty and practicality. The colors blend so organically that your projects look way more complex than they actually are - always a bonus! If you haven't tried Turkish yarns before, this is a great place to start - the quality will surprise you in the best way possible.
