Quattro Lamé: The Ultimate Four-Blade Razor

QUATTRO LAMÉ, luminous cotton yarn by Lang Yarns

QUATTRO LAMÉ brings a delicate shimmer to the clean, summery character of cotton. Made from 96% cotton and 4% polyester, this mercerised yarn combines a polished sheen with a glitter thread that catches the light. It can be used for both knitting and crochet, making it a versatile choice for spring and summer projects that call for colour, definition and a refined sparkling detail.

Mercerised cotton with a distinctive sheen

Mercerisation gives QUATTRO LAMÉ its attractive shine. The surface reflects light and helps the structure of the work remain visible, whether you choose a simple stitch, openwork, textured knitting or a decorative crochet motif. The glitter thread adds another layer of interest without hiding the construction of the fabric. It is an effective way to bring a luminous accent to a summer design while retaining the crisp appearance associated with cotton.

Lang Yarns also describes QUATTRO LAMÉ as a strong yarn that is enjoyable to knit or crochet. Its stable character supports a smooth making experience and a neat, readable result. When a project represents many hours of careful work, choosing a reliable yarn helps every stitch contribute to a finished piece that reflects both the pattern and the skill invested in it.

What can you make with QUATTRO LAMÉ?

This yarn is particularly suited to summer accessories and children's clothing. It can be considered for lightweight tops, summer jumpers, small cardigans, headbands and crocheted accessories. The shimmering thread can also highlight a border, yoke or other decorative section within a larger design. For children's garments, the fact that the yarn is easy to wash is a practical quality for pieces intended to be worn regularly.

Each 50 g ball contains 120 metres of yarn. The recommended needle size is 3 to 4 mm, while the stated tension over 10 cm is 24 stitches and 32 rows. Before beginning a garment, make your own tension swatch with the needles and stitch pattern you plan to use. This allows you to assess the fabric, stitch definition and finished measurements. For a piece worn close to the neck, the swatch also offers a useful opportunity to check how the cotton feels against your own skin.

Straightforward care for handmade projects

QUATTRO LAMÉ is presented by Lang Yarns as easy to wash. Use a detergent intended for fine wash and follow the additional care directions printed on the ball band. Washing a tension swatch before starting a larger project can help you observe the fabric after care and confirm your measurements. No unprovided temperature or drying method should be assumed, so the label remains the appropriate reference for the complete washing process.

The fibre content is clearly stated to support an informed choice: 96% cotton and 4% polyester. QUATTRO LAMÉ is also OEKO-TEX certified under certificate number 25.3.0121. This is a specific product detail supplied by Lang Yarns and offers useful transparency without implying any additional origin, ethical or environmental claim beyond the information provided.
