Olivo Brillo Viscose Blend Metallic Tape Cone Yarn

This chain-style viscose metallic tape yarn combines softness with a restrained shimmer, offering a fluid handfeel and gentle drape rather than structural stiffness. Spun at 1/2.1Nm, it is designed for makers who appreciate surface light and movement without heaviness or rigidity.

The color blends a warm yellow base with fine gold metallic strands, creating a quiet glow that catches light subtly rather than loudly. The effect is refined, elegant, and especially suited to summer textiles and accent work.

As an industrial surplus yarn, this cone reflects practical consistency and creative flexibility. While soft and without strong body on its own, it pairs beautifully with linen or other structured fibers when additional definition is desired.

Important Notes

• Unlike skein yarn, cone yarn always requires a swatch test before knitting to determine shrinkage and gauge

• This yarn is soft and fluid, with minimal natural structure

• For added body, it can be held together with one or two strands of linen or other structured yarns

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

• May have mild outer dust or storage marks

• 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.
