Mille Colori Baby
Superwash merino by Lang
Another truly fabulous example of Lang's color expertise! This one is a single ply, very long repeat fine yarn, great for lace projects, fine knits, and more. This yarn is 100% wool, and superwash too!. The colors are so true, so enticing, and have great impact, as you would expect from Lang's European mills. Soft and supple, this yarn has a tight twist that is just slightly uneven to give the depth and texture you're looking for.
There are projects for this yarn in the Lang Fatto a Mano 201, "Color!), but you could use this for so many projects that call for variegated yarn with a long repeat, like "Swing Knitting©", or patterns in "Artful Color, Mindful Knits". And thousands of gorgeous lace projects too!
The pattern for the piece shown above is in Fatto a Mano 201.
- 27 stitches & 36 rows over 4" for a solid fabric
- Needle size 2-4 for stockinette, but can be larger for lace
- 50 gram ball is about 209 yards (190m)
- Machine wash gentle, dry flat, do not use fabric softener or dry clean
- Woman's plain medium (36") long sleeved pullover takes approximately 400 g (8 balls)

This yarn is very soft and the colors are amazing. It knits just as easily as my longtime favorite lopi yarns. Laurel and John are very helpful.

Thank you!
I realized too late that I hadn’t purchased the necessary # of Mili Colori Baby at my local yarn store. They were out when I realized my mistake. So were 3 online yarn stores. I was elated to find the necessary color in your inventory. Shipped fast with no problems. Will be a repeat customer. Thanks again

Lovely
This is the second time that I have purchased this yarn. The colors are gorgeous and the yarn makes interesting and unusual Zick Zack scarves.

Excellent service
I was looking for this specific yarn. Handknitting.com provided excellent service when I placed an order late on a Tuesday evening and the product was in my mailbox on Saturday morning. I also found their website easy to use. I purchase quite a bit of yarn, much of it online, and surely will use their company again.
