Zegna Baruffa Cashwool 100 Extrafine Merino Wool Cone Yarn · 2/48Nm · Italy
This exceptionally fine extrafine merino yarn from the Italian house Zegna Baruffa Cashwool offers a soft, smooth handfeel and a clean, refined surface with quiet elegance. Spun at 2/48Nm, it is light and delicate yet stable, making it especially suited to fine-gauge knitwear and elevated, understated designs.
The color 445140 is a soft dusty rose — muted and atmospheric, with a quiet warmth that feels timeless and understated. It is especially suitable for delicate knitwear, tailored knit fabrics, and minimal aesthetic designs built around a soft, muted palette.
As an industrial surplus yarn, this cone provides consistency in spinning quality while maintaining flexibility for creative development. The extrafine merino brings remarkable softness, next-to-skin comfort, and a subtle luxury touch that defines this yarn's refined character.

Important Notes
• This yarn is soft and fine, with controlled elasticity and minimal bulk
• Being very fine, it is often worked in multiple strands held together to reach heavier gauges — swatch to find your preferred weight
• For best results, swatch before production to test tension and fabric density
• Cone yarn is different from skein yarn and must always be swatched before knitting to evaluate shrinkage and gauge
• For added structure, it can be combined with silk, nylon, or other stabilizing fibers
• Some cones may be 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
