🧵 The yarn

Glitter Cotton by Lane Mondial is a 100% cotton yarn enriched with sequins of different sizes, set directly into the twist of the yarn. Designed for those who love bright, modern details, it gives a haute couture touch to knitted and crocheted garments and accessories: sweaters, shawls, tops and evening accessories.

Each ball weighs 100 grams and offers a generous 400 meters of yarn. Its structure is fine yet strong: you can work it on its own or pair it with soft, voluminous yarns such as mohair, alpaca or combed cotton for a sparkling, elegant effect. Available in a palette of 12 colours, modern and vibrant, from cream and sand neutrals to intense shades such as burgundy, fuchsia and blue.

🧬 Technical composition: why it works

The cotton core thread ensures freshness, breathability and a pleasant feel on the skin, ideal qualities for summer garments and light accessories. The multi-size sequins are fixed into the twist of the yarn: there is no need to sew them on, and they spread naturally through the work, creating irregular, luminous reflections.

Precisely because it is fine, Glitter works beautifully as a carry-along yarn (held together with another yarn): worked with a fluffy yarn it creates a three-dimensional textural contrast and a "galactic" effect, without weighing down the fabric or making it stiff.

📦 Ball format and yield

Thanks to its yardage of 400 meters per 100 grams, Glitter offers an outstanding yield with minimal weight on the finished garment. For edges, cuffs, necklines and shimmering details just 1 ball is enough to embellish the details of several garments.

For a cardigan or sweater (size 38-40 EU) held together with mohair or alpaca you need 1-2 balls (400-800 meters). For a summer top or light sheer sweater (size 38-40 EU) worked on its own you need 2-3 balls. We recommend buying all the balls at once, because dye lots may vary slightly from one production run to another.

🧶 Recommended working

Worked on its own, Glitter is ideal for sheer summer tops, shimmering camisoles, elegant shawls and breathable evening accessories. With fine needles or a fine hook you get a light, airy fabric in which the sequins sparkle with every movement.

Held together, work Glitter with the main yarn using the needles or hook recommended for the latter: the fine thread blends into the fabric and adds light without changing the stitch size. Work calmly without pulling the yarn too tight, so the sequins lie flat on the right side of the work.

✨ Why choose Mondial Glitter Cotton

Glitter combines the natural freshness of cotton with the glamour of sequins in a single yarn, with no need to sew on beads or sequins by hand. It is a versatile yarn: the same ball can become a shimmering summer top or add a sparkling touch to a mohair or alpaca cardigan.

Its high yardage (400m) also makes it good value: with just a few balls you can complete a whole garment or embellish the details of many projects. The Lane Mondial name guarantees Italian quality and a modern colour palette designed to match the most popular yarns.

🎨 What you can make

With Glitter you can make summer tops and camisoles, elegant shawls and stoles, evening accessories such as clutches and shrugs, or add light to cardigans and sweaters worked with a second yarn. It is also perfect for shimmering edges, cuffs and necklines.

👩‍🎨 Who it is suitable for

Glitter suits those who already have some experience with knitting or crochet: the sequins call for calm, even work. When worked as a carry-along yarn with a main yarn, however, it is easy even for beginners, because it follows the size and stitch of the main yarn.

It is much loved by those who enjoy trendy garments, those who create ceremony and evening accessories and those who want to add a personal, shimmering touch to their projects with a single ball.
