by Lang
Novena is an exceptionally appealing and light hand knitting yarn out of precious merino wool and glossy alpaca. Because of an innovative spinning technique, this yarn knits like a lightweight worsted, but the resulting garment is airy and very light to wear. Wonderful for fair isle knitting, because it knits up fast but isn't heavy. So soft, too!
As usual, the Lang colors are beautiful, and appealing, and completely current. This yarn lends itself to stitch patterning. There are many beautiful patterns for this yarn in all the Fall and Winter Fatto a Mano books.

Novena wool
Great product and excellent delivery. I live in Australia and my goodies came in less than 2 weeks.

I was so happy to find this yarn as I had a few skeins in a different color but not enough for a shawl. The yarn is exactly what I wanted and the color was spot on. I will buy from again.

Receipt of yarn
Great service. Thank you. Are you still shipping yarn during the Covid19 outbreak? Should have ordered another color of the Novena.

Beautiful yarn
First experience with a chained yarn has been positive. Love the texture and light weight.

Lang Yarn Novena
The ladies jumper I knitted in Lang Yarn Novena 74 (teal blue) is beautifully soft and light, yet warm. There are no stockists of Lang Yarn in Australia, so Handknitting.com was able to supply what I needed and their customer service is exceptional.
