Premium Lang Yarns Cashmere Wool - Luxurious Quality for Knitting and Crocheting

CASHMERE PREMIUM in pure cashmere

CASHMERE PREMIUM by Lang Yarns is made from 100% top-quality cashmere. This precious animal fibre brings together exceptional lightness, breathable comfort and gentle warmth, making it especially appealing for garments worn close to the skin. Its soft touch is particularly welcome around the neck, where the wrong yarn can make an otherwise beautiful sweater or accessory uncomfortable to wear. With pure cashmere, the pleasure of the finished piece begins with the way it feels against the skin.

Lightweight warmth for autumn and winter

Each 25 g ball contains 115 metres of yarn, offering generous length with very little weight. This makes CASHMERE PREMIUM a natural choice for refined autumn and winter knitwear that feels warm without becoming heavy. Consider it for lightweight sweaters, cardigans and elegant tops, as well as scarves, cowls, hats, wrist warmers and other accessories designed to sit close to the skin.

Simple stocking stitch allows the natural character of the fibre to take centre stage. If your chosen design includes ribbing, cables or another textured pattern, a swatch will help you assess how the stitches appear before committing to the full project. It provides a practical opportunity to look at fabric density, drape and stitch definition in relation to the pattern you want to make.

Needle size and tension

The recommended needle range is 3.5 to 4.5 mm. This gives you room to select a needle that suits both the instructions and your individual knitting tension. The stated tension is 22 stitches and 34 rows over 10 cm. As every knitter handles yarn differently, making your own tension square remains an essential step when size and fit matter.

Before beginning a sweater or cardigan, knit a sufficiently useful sample and measure it carefully. Compare your result with the stated 22 stitches and 34 rows, then choose the needle size that best supports the requirements of your pattern. The sample also lets you spend time with the yarn and examine the fabric before casting on a larger number of stitches. This small preparation can make a meaningful difference when you want the completed garment to reflect the dimensions and appearance of the original design.

A fibre worthy of your knitting time

The value of quality yarn is ultimately found in the object you create. A hand-knitted garment represents many hours of attention, skill and care, so the material should help that work become something you are proud to wear. Pure cashmere contributes lightness, soft warmth and refined comfort to the finished piece. The difference is not simply about the ball of yarn; it is about giving your chosen design a material that honours the time invested in every stitch.

CASHMERE PREMIUM can be enjoyed by experienced knitters and by anyone choosing pure cashmere for the first time. A straightforward shape is a good way to let the fibre speak for itself, while a more detailed pattern can be approached carefully through swatching. In either case, the focus remains on thoughtful making and on creating a garment or accessory with an elegant, comfortable feel.
