RiGo · Luisa 3/15 · 500m/547yds per 100g/3.5oz · 60% Angora (WA) 20% Wool (WO) 20% Polyamide (PA)

Luisa 3/15 by RiGo is a luxuriously soft angora blend with a dense, velvety halo that is immediately and unmistakably its defining quality. 60% angora dominates the character of this yarn entirely — producing one of the softest, most tactile halos in the natural fiber world. Angora fiber is exceptionally fine, smooth, and warm, with a distinctive fluffiness that sits somewhere between mohair's silky luminosity and cashmere's enveloping depth. The result is a yarn that feels as extraordinary as it looks.

20% wool provides structure and natural elasticity, keeping the blend cohesive and giving it the body to knit consistently across strand counts. 20% polyamide reinforces the construction with durability and resilience, ensuring the angora halo holds up beautifully through wear and washing.

Luisa 3/15 works beautifully as a standalone yarn and as a classic companion thread — pairing an angora halo yarn with any fine base thread produces fabric of extraordinary softness and visual depth. An exceptional companion that transforms any yarn it accompanies.

Versatile Use

Designed for relaxed knitting and crochet, Luisa 3/15 works in 1 or 2 strands. Larger needles than the meterage suggests are recommended — the angora halo needs space to bloom and breathe fully. For machine knitting, finer strand combinations are equally possible. Ideal for sweaters, cardigans, shawls, and accessories where the extraordinary softness and plush halo of angora define the design.

Care Instructions

Hand wash very gently in cool water

Use a mild detergent suitable for angora and delicate fiber blends

Lay flat to dry on a horizontal surface

Do not wring, twist, agitate, or rub — angora fibers shed and felt easily

Do not tumble dry

Steam very lightly at low temperature if necessary

Swatching Required

A washed and thoroughly dried swatch is essential. Angora halos bloom significantly after washing, altering both gauge and the visual weight of the fabric. Always swatch on the needles you intend to use — the halo effect intensifies considerably after the first wash.
