Filpucci S.P.A. · Ninetyfive Over 1600 · 160m/175yds per 100g/3.5oz · 95% Cashmere (WS) 5% Merino (WV)

Ninetyfive Over 1600 by Filpucci S.P.A. is cashmere at 95%, a composition that leaves almost nothing to compromise and everything to the fiber itself. The name says it all: this is a yarn built around near-pure cashmere, and Ninetyfive Over 1600 delivers that promise at aran weight in a cord construction that is immediately satisfying in the hand, smooth, rounded, and dense with the warmth and softness that only the finest cashmere can produce.

5% merino adds just enough structural integrity to hold the cord together through knitting and wear without in any way altering the essential cashmere character. In the hand and against the skin, this reads as pure cashmere: enveloping, warm without weight, and refined in a way that synthetic blends and lesser wool yarns simply cannot approach.

The two-tone merl twist visible in the cord gives the yarn a subtle visual depth, two shades working together within the structure to create a surface that has quiet movement and dimension without any complex dyeing technique.

Versatile Use

At 160m/100g, Ninetyfive Over 1600 is an aran-weight yarn designed to be worked as is. For machine knitting, finer strand combinations are equally possible. Best worked in simple stitch patterns where the cashmere cord and its subtle two-tone character can read clearly. Ideal for luxurious sweaters, cardigans, shawls, and accessories where near-pure cashmere warmth and refinement define the piece.
