Ilaria Signac Textured Tape Cotton Cool Handfeel Yarn  — Artistic Texture, Modern Contrast

From Italy’s Ilaria Filati, this Signac yarn is a distinctive cotton-based tape yarn featuring a white glossy ribbon intertwined with a fine black thread. The result is an irregular, painterly pattern reminiscent of ink strokes on fabric — subtle yet full of artistic rhythm.

At 1/2.5nm (≈250m / 100g), this yarn has a ribbon-like body with gentle sheen and structure, ideal for creating sculptural or visual-texture effects in hand knitting or weaving.

• Some cones are rewound onto empty cones without original mill labels

• Sold as is, without retail packaging

• All yarns are 100% functional with no visible flaws or defects affecting usability

• Please note that cone yarn is wound in an industrial format.

• In rare cases, internal breaks may not be visible from the outside of the cone.

• 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.
