RiGo · Luckystar 1/13 · 650m/711yds per 100g/3.5oz · 75% Viscose (Vi) 5% Polyamide (PA) 20% Lurex

Luckystar 1/13 by RiGo is a viscose-lurex fantasy yarn with a construction as distinctive as its effect. A fine viscose base carries irregular lurex nodules and thickenings along its length, creating a thread where metallic light appears in concentrated bursts rather than as a uniform shimmer. The nodes flash and catch the light with an intensity that flat lurex threads cannot achieve, while the viscose base between them adds fluid drape and a natural, silky sheen of its own.

75% viscose provides the foundation: smooth, fluid, and with a natural luminosity that gives the yarn a dual-layer brilliance. The viscose carries colour with exceptional richness and drapes with effortless grace. 20% lurex in nodule form adds the theatrical element, irregular and dimensional, each thickening reflecting light from a different angle as the fabric moves. 5% polyamide reinforces the structure, holding the fantasy construction together through knitting and wear.

Luckystar 1/13 works beautifully as a standalone yarn, where the lurex nodules and viscose drape can fully express themselves, and as an exceptional companion thread, instantly adding metallic dimension and fluid luminosity to any combination.

Versatile Use

At 650m/100g, Luckystar 1/13 works in 2 or 3 strands for hand knitting and crochet. For machine knitting, finer strand combinations are equally possible. Best worked in simple stitch patterns where the lurex nodules and viscose sheen can read clearly. Ideal for evening tops, statement cardigans, shawls, and accessories where fantasy metallic texture and fluid drape define the design.
