SPIRIT: merino and cashmere with a lively twist

SPIRIT joins our summer edit as a new yarn from Lang Yarns. This luxurious natural-fibre yarn brings merino and cashmere together in a construction that is full of character before the first stitch is even made.

A yarn with its own rhythm

SPIRIT owes its distinctive look to the way varied strands are plied together. Each strand contributes to the overall appearance, while the twist creates movement across the knitted surface. The result feels refined yet expressive, even when worked in the simplest stitches.

Let the texture lead

• Stocking stitch gives the yarn room to reveal its nuanced surface.
• Ribs and simple textures echo the rhythm of the plied strands.
• Clean silhouettes keep the focus on the yarn, whether used for a sweater, cardigan or refined accessory.

A swatch is especially useful with SPIRIT. It reveals how the yarn’s relief, drape and visual movement respond to a chosen stitch, helping you find the right balance between material and pattern.

Choosing the colour

Colour can make the construction appear subtle and understated or give it a more expressive presence. For ideas, browse our selection of on-trend colours.
