How do you choose Silke by Arvier yarn?

Match the fibre and metreage to the pattern gauge, warmth, texture and shine you want. HABSBOURG is considerably finer than the other options in this category, so calculating the metreage and knitting a swatch is especially important. Follow the care instructions for the specific yarn: most options are washed at up to 30°C and dried flat, while SUISSE can be machine washed on a gentle cycle at up to 40°C.
