🛶 Old money glamour, new skein energy! 🛶
Lake Como has been the playground of aristocrats, artists, and A-listers for centuries — and honestly, who can blame them? Nestled between dramatic Alpine peaks, its waters shift from the softest silver-grey at dawn to the most luminous steel blue at midday to a deep, moody slate as the sun sets behind the mountains. This colorway captures all of that effortless, understated elegance: cool blues, misty silvers, and the kind of quiet sophistication that doesn't need to announce itself because it simply is. Lake Como is the yarn equivalent of a villa with a private dock, and your needles are very much invited.
Choose your villa:
-
Fingering: 463 yards per 100g skein — enough cool, luminous yardage to knit socks for lakeside promenades, shawls as soft and silvery as morning mist on the water, or any project that deserves a touch of timeless, effortless elegance!
-
DK Weight: 245 yards per 100g skein — perfect for sophisticated cardigans, lakeside cowls, and projects as quietly beautiful as a Como sunset reflected on still water.
The villa formula:
75% superwash merino + 25% nylon — as smooth and refined as the lake itself. Soft, durable, and with excellent stitch definition that lets every cool silver and blue hue shimmer like light on Como's legendary waters!
Hand-dyed in a smoke-free environment and photographed in natural light with no filters — because Lake Como's cool, luminous palette is most beautiful in its most natural, unfiltered light!
