ITO Gami Picot - Cotton/Silk/Paper Blend

ITO Gami Picot is a tape yarn with loops, adding movement to the knitted surface. This oscillating effect is enhanced even more by a mix of matt and glossy materials, like silk, paper and cotton. With Gami Picot you can add some extravagant pieces to your wardrobe or just highlight parts of your knitting. Note also, that this yarn has a very soft grip.

Why You’ll Love It:
✔ Strategic Fiber Blend - It features a luxurious blend of 49% cotton, 38% silk, and 13% paper.
✔ Matte vs. Glossy Play - Blending matte cotton and paper with luminous silk creates an elegant, light-catching surface effect.
✔ Loop-Fringed Ribbon - Built-in loops dance along the edge of the flat tape yarn, creating an oscillating, wavy surface texture.
✔ Breathable Airflow - The combination of silk and traditional Japanese paper regulates temperature, keeping you cool in summer and warm in winter.
✔ Fiber Art Versatility - This structural yarn is not limited to knitting; fiber artists frequently use it for weaving, braiding, and sewing accents
