Toscano S.R.L. · Hermano 2200 · 220m/241yds per 100g/3.5oz · 43% Cotton (Co) 37% Linen (Li) 20% Silk (Se)

Hermano 2200 by Toscano S.R.L. is a wrapped cord yarn of substantial character, a thick, well-bodied thread where a fine outer fiber is wound tightly around a denser core, creating a rounded, structured profile with a satisfying weight in the hand. The cord sits firmly on the needle and knits into fabric with confident body and clean stitch definition, producing pieces with real presence and a polished, considered finish.

43% cotton provides clean breathability and natural structure. 37% linen adds its characteristic crispness, strength, and the subtle natural luster that only this fiber delivers. 20% silk is the distinction that elevates the blend: running through the wrapped construction, it adds a fluid sheen and a smooth quality to what would otherwise be a purely textural yarn, giving Hermano 2200 a refinement and surface elegance that the cotton-linen combination alone could not achieve.

The result is a warm-weather cord of genuine quality: heavy enough to have real presence and body, natural enough to breathe and wear comfortably, and refined enough by the silk component to feel deliberately luxurious rather than simply utilitarian.

Please note: due to the density of the wrapped cord construction, Hermano 2200 is classified as Worsted by meterage but knits and behaves more like a DK weight in practice. We recommend swatching with DK needle sizes before committing to a gauge.

Versatile Use

At 220m/100g, Hermano 2200 is a true worsted-weight yarn ready to knit and crochet as is. For machine knitting, finer strand combinations are equally possible. The wrapped cord construction performs particularly well in simple stitch patterns where the weight and structure of the yarn can read clearly. Ideal for summer tops, cardigans, bags, accessories, and warm-weather garments where natural fiber weight and refined cord texture define the piece.
