like silk stainless steel, the core is stainless steel and wool is wrapped around the core. because of the stainless steel, there is a memory in the yarn. create something, twist it around! it will stay in that shape unless you straighten it out. it is probably easiest if you knit this yarn in 2 strands, however a lace stitch in a single strand is beautiful. if you have a difficulty casting on this yarn, please use another similar color/weight cotton or silk thread to cast on first then switch to this yarn on the 3rd row or so. works fine as a warp yarn for weavers, but it is a bit tricky. if you are just starting to use this yarn, use it as a weft yarn first. 4-5 cones will be a whole garment.

From Habu: such a simple yarn, but with such a sheen and a wonderful natural grey. it softens and drapes beautifully.
such soft yarn... beautiful sheen... great yarn for lace projects. 2 skeins will make a large shawl. perfect as a warp/weft yarn for weavers, too. if you live in a hot humid climate, you will like this yarn. bamboo yarn is cool against your skin!

From Habu: "now we have gima in linen ramie. it has a great fullness to it. it is one of those springy "alive" yarns! this is the "chibi" thinner version of n-116. please note that the colors you see on the screen may not be accurate as each monitor displays differently. thank you for your understanding."
From Habu Textiles: “ This is a beautiful soft cotton with thick and thin slub within. Very subtle, but good sheen. The thick part of the yarn worms out slightly creating a cute three dimensional effect. We will be coming out with many colors of this yarn this summer! Please come back to see it. The yarn will dye well.”

like silk or wool stainless steel, you can create a three dimensional fabric, but it will be softer with this yarn. has a very elegant sheen and almost translucent in feeling. 1 cone will make a large scarf. 2-3 cones will make a whole garment.

this is a silk gima. as strong as the cotton, but softer with a very subtle sheen. great for anything, garment, scarf, bag, etc. 4 balls will make a large scarf.
