What a wonderful yarn, just perfect for summer and year round wear! Casino is a cotton/synthetic blend, embellished with the tiniest metallic thread that gives a subtle shimmer to the yarn. It has lots of body too, great for openwork, with cotton softness.
There are beautiful patterns for Casino in the new Fatto a Mano 197 and 198: everything from lacy pullovers to cardigans and tops. Knit a simple top to wear on its own all summer, then under a jacket for work the rest of the year!

Alpaca SuperLight Lamé
by Lang
What a great addition to Alpaca SuperLight--an ultra thin polyester metallic thread paired with the super-soft, super-fine, super-luxurious, super-light alpaca yarn from Lang. This yarn has a light halo, yet is less transparent than most brushed yarns. No tickle or scratch like mohair, none of the itchiness you might expect with a feathery yarn.
Perfect for lace scarves, shawls and stoles, but great for lighter-than-air sweaters too. Anywhere you want a little bit of glitz.

Sansibar, by Lang
What a gorgeous yarn, and so disappointing that it is now discontinued but of course that means a great bargain for you! Once again the masters at Lang have proven they are the best when it comes to blending fibers: Sansibar is a single ply wool blend, with an engaging shine from the viscose, and strength from the nylon.
As usual, the Lang colors are striking and yet balanced, and so appealing. This yarn is well suited to using by itself, or combined with another yarn. Use it for any pattern asking for a sport weight wool.
- 65% Wool, 21% Nylon, 14% Viscose (Rayon)
- 26 stitches and 34 rows to 4" on US 5-6 needles (3.5-4 mm)
- 50 gram ball is about 208 yards (190m)
- Hand wash, dry flat, do not use fabric softener
- Woman's medium (36") plain long sleeved pullover takes approximately 400 g (8 balls)

Merino 130 Compact
A very, very different merino yarn! This is super-fine merino spun in an extra tight twist, with an anti-felting finish, and dyed in all those beautiful Lang colors. This is a sport weight yarn that displays unsurpassed stitch definition. And so soft next to the skin. Merino 130 Compact originally sold for $14.00 per ball.
We suspect that this yarn did not sell well in the US because of the smaller needle size required. But if you want an heirloom project, this yarn is perfect. We have limited quantities of certain colors, so order soon.
- 100% merino wool
- 50g ball = about 142 yd (130 m)
- 23 st to 4" on US 4-5 needles
- Machine or hand wash warm, lay flat to dry, or dry clean (although personally I would hand wash). Do not use fabric softener.
The style photos below are available in current Fatto a Mano magazines, or as single purchase. If you need help locating one or have questions, please email laurel@dyedandgone.com .
