Colour

Midnatssol (Midnight sun) is a super soft, light, airy, and full-bodied yarn with 25 grams per skein and 200 meters. Midnatssol consist of an exclusive blend of 54% baby alpaca, 10% merino wool (mulesing free), and 36% tencel. Tencel constitute the fine thread, holding together the fibers.

Midnatssol is produced specially for CaMaRose on a family-owned Italian spinning mill, with consideration for both environment and animal welfare, thus the merino wool used, is of course mulesing free and there is used Tencel in the yarn. The merino wool is from South America.

Midnatssol is perfect as a complimentary thread to other yarn qualities. Midnatssol is suitable for sweaters, cardigans, shawls, hats, baby, and children’s knitwear, using one thread, but also using several threads for chunky sweaters and cardigans.

The colour scale of Midnatssol is adapted to current trends and carefully selected to match CaMaRose’s other colour scales. As a complimentary thread to other qualities and by combining 2-3 strands of MIDNATSSOL, either in unicolour or in 3 different colours, you can make your own look.

The recommended needle size using 1 strand is 3.0 - 4.0 mm. Using several threads, you can go up to a 6.0 mm needle.

Recommended gauge:
1 strand on a 3 mm needle, 19-22 sts = 10 cm.
Alternative gauges:
2 strands of MIDNATSSOL on a 4 mm needle, 20-21 sts = 10 cm.
3 strands of MIDNATSSOL on a 5 mm needle, 14-15 sts = 10 cm.

The length is 200 meters per one skein of 25 grams.

It is recommended to HAND WASH the finished work, using wool detergent and lay the finished work flat to dry.

About color reproduction

We always do our utmost to ensure that the product images reproduce the colors correctly. However, monitors display colors differently, some may display them deeper and stronger while others brighter. We therefore cannot guarantee that the pictures show the exact color of the yarn. You can always email us at hej@lillagarnbutiken.se if you want to see more pictures.

Wash and care

This yarn is best washed by hand with wool detergent, for example Eucalan. Let the garment lie in a tub with about 4 liters of water together with a teaspoon of wool detergent. Then gently squeeze out the water and place the garment on a towel. Roll the towel with the garment and squeeze out the water.

If you have a washing machine that can run a spin-only program, you can use this instead of squeezing out the water in a towel. If you are unsure about your washing machine, we recommend that you knit a test patch that you wash and spin to see how the yarn and fabric behave.

Let the garment dry flat, preferably on a towel. The garment should not be dried in direct sunlight, it can be in the sun without any problems when it is dry.
