Lana Grossa Chiara, made in Italy

Chiara is a fluffy, feather-weight, superkid mohair yarn with a brilliant silky glow added by a strand of rayon. A small content of Elastane (stretchable polyester filament similar to Lycra) takes care of garments' shape. It is one of the brand new, super light-weight, "air yarns" from Lana Grossa: a long-sleeved pullover made of Chiara weights about 700 gr. Chiara is ultra soft and is suitable for knit fashion of any kind: fantasy and classic pullovers, dresses, vests, or for articles with bohemian chic. * "Chiara" is the Italian version of the name Claire.
