Description
LAMANA - Como
COMO is a three-ply twisted SUPERLIGHTyarn made from 100% superfine Merino wool with 18.5 microns in DK weight. The carded yarn with 120m running length on only 25g gets its unique lightness and extremely soft feel through an innovative production method. The temperature-regulating and breathable characteristics of merino wool are further enhanced and the light wool fluff creates an elegant, subtly matt surface.
These characteristics make COMO particularly versatile. Thanks to its softness and machine washability, it is ideal for baby clothes, accessories and anything that needs to be cozy soft. Fair Isle has a great look and larger knitted items in particular benefit from the low weight and hold their shape excellently thanks to the elasticity combined with the lightness of the yarn.
COMO is not superwash treated, but can be machine washed at 30° wool program without any problems. The wool then blossoms again and becomes noticeably softer, fluffier and the knitting pattern even denser.
Depending on the desired effect, COMO can be knitted both tightly woven and airy and offers the perfect basis for combinations with our other qualities. For an extra portion of fluffiness and even more softness, COMO can be knitted wonderfully with the super kid mohair yarn PREMIA, but MODENA and the alpaca yarns PIURA and CUSI are also perfect as supplementary yarns.
Responsibility

The merino wool used is certified in the areas of animal welfare, sustainability and social responsibility and is dyed in accordance with the OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 for baby products.

Martina Black -
Lamana Como is wonderfully light and soft yarn which I have knitted for a simple bat sweater. Unfortunately, the yarn is partly very irregular spun, so that there are not only hidden places but also so dpnne that it is close to tearing. In addition, I had several times a thread end in some of the balls, so that my sweater has many knots from the inside. Annoying with such a "good" yarn.

Dear Martina,
yes, Como is really a great yarn! What a shame that you got such an irregular ball. Irregularities are usually due to technical reasons and cannot be completely avoided. Feel free to contact support@maschenfein.de in such cases so we can check.
Best regards
Louisa

Como is a beautiful soft wool yarn with strong resemblance to a cashmere yarn. It is super light, soft and warm, cozy. It tends to pill, but can be made like new again with a lint razor every now and then. The color palette is great and it's easy to double knit the yarn - then with two shades. For example, I have combined Petrol with Marone - super nice! I have also often combined Como with Piura, beautiful, even warmer cozy pieces. I also find the lack of superwash finish good, because such always destroys the true wool character.
This yarn has a great price-performance ratio.
