Biagioli Modesto Samarkand 100 Camel Hair Cone Yarn

From the renowned Samarkand collection by Biagioli Modesto, this luxurious 100% camel hair yarn offers remarkable softness, natural warmth, and a refined matte appearance. Spun at 2/14Nm, it creates fabrics that feel light yet insulating, with a delicate halo and exceptional next-to-skin comfort.

Camel hair is prized for its unique combination of warmth and lightness. Naturally breathable and soft, it develops a quiet elegance that suits timeless garments and heirloom-quality accessories. The yarn carries a gentle rustic character while maintaining the sophisticated touch associated with Italian spinning excellence.

As an industrial surplus yarn, this cone represents both exceptional quality and creative freedom. Suitable for both hand knitting and machine knitting, it allows makers to experience rare luxury fibers that are increasingly difficult to source in small quantities.

• Unlike yarn balls, cone yarn always requires knitting a gauge swatch before starting a project to test shrinkage, stitch density, and fabric behavior.

• Please allow approximately 2%–3% knitting loss, which is standard for cone yarn handling.

• In case of yarn breaks, pull away about 10 cm of yarn before rejoining and secure with a small cross-knot to reduce tension and avoid distortion in the knitted fabric.
