🧵 The yarn
Elena Mondial Cotton is a cotton-silk twisted yarn that combines two precious natural fibers in a single 50g skein. The base is long-staple Egyptian cotton (85%), soft and breathable, while the silk (15%) adds shine and brings the color to life with small contrast buttons. The result is an elegant, lightweight yarn that is perfect for the warmer season.
Each skein offers 125 meters of yarn, ideal for creating tops, lightweight sweaters, summer cardigans and refined accessories. It can be worked with 3.5-4.5mm needles or a 3.5-4mm crochet hook, making it suitable for both simple and openwork stitches.
🧬 Technical composition: why it works
Egyptian cotton is a long-staple natural fiber known for its strength, softness and moisture-absorbing properties. In Elena Cotton, it forms the base of the yarn, ensuring freshness and breathability even on the hottest days. Its regular structure allows for smooth working and a uniform finish, without fuzz or knots.
The silk adds natural shine and softness to the touch. Thanks to its twisted structure, the yarn features small contrast-colored buttons that create a refined color effect, perfect for those looking for a distinctive cotton-silk yarn. Silk also improves the drape of the finished garment, making it more elegant and comfortable.
📦 Skein size and yield
Each skein weighs 50g and offers approximately 125 meters of yarn. One skein is enough to make a girls' top, a light scarf or a small accessory. For larger projects such as women's sweaters or cardigans, allow approximately 6-8 skeins for a size M, depending on the model and chosen technique.
We recommend purchasing all the skeins you need at once, preferably from the same color lot. The pastel shades of Elena Cotton may vary slightly between different color lots, so buying everything together ensures a uniform color result.
🧶 Recommended technique
Elena Cotton is worked with 3.5-4.5mm needles. The smallest size (3.5mm) creates a tighter knit, ideal for structured garments such as cardigans or turtlenecks. The larger size (4.5mm) produces a more open and lightweight fabric, perfect for summer tops and openwork stitches. The yarn's twisted structure particularly enhances cable stitches and geometric patterns.
For crochet, use sizes 3.5-4mm. The yarn is well suited to openwork projects such as shawls, stoles and accessories with openwork stitches. Thanks to the silk, the finished garment retains a beautiful drape even with openwork stitches. Ideal for anyone looking for a versatile summer yarn, suitable for both beginners and experienced knitters.
✨ Why choose Elena Mondial Cotton
Compared to 100% cotton yarns, Elena Cotton offers superior softness thanks to the silk, making the finished garment more comfortable against the skin and less stiff after washing. The twisted structure with contrast-colored buttons creates a unique visual effect that is impossible to achieve with traditional solid-colored or printed yarns.
The pastel color palette is designed for elegant and refined creations, perfect for those looking for delicate and versatile shades. The yarn is lightweight and breathable, ideal for the warmer season, but structured enough to maintain the garment's shape even after numerous uses. An excellent choice for anyone looking for a natural, high-quality yarn with a distinctive touch.
🎨 What you can create
Elena Cotton is perfect for spring and summer sweaters and tops, lightweight cardigans, airy scarves and stoles, and elegant accessories such as bags and clutches. Thanks to its twisted structure, it particularly enhances openwork stitches and airy fabrics.
👩🎨 Who it is suitable for
Elena Cotton is suitable for both beginners and experienced knitters. The twisted structure glides smoothly on knitting needles and crochet hooks, making the work fluid and enjoyable. The stitches are well-defined and easy to read, an important feature for those who are learning. The presence of silk does not complicate the work, but simply adds softness.
This yarn is particularly appreciated by those looking for high-quality natural fibers for elegant and refined creations. Perfect for hobbyists who love pastel colors and refined details, but also for those who work to commission and are looking for a versatile yarn that is easy to care for and offers excellent value for money.
