Loro Piana · Vittoria 1/20 · 200m/219yds per 100g/3.5oz · 55% Merino (WV) 45% Cashmere (WS)
Vittoria 1/20 by Loro Piana is a merino-cashmere lash yarn of immediate, tactile luxury. Dense, short lashes radiate uniformly from the core thread, creating a full, even ворс that envelops the yarn in a continuous soft halo. The lash structure is compact and abundant, giving the yarn a plush, velvety character that is quite different from longer, more open lash constructions: the finished fabric has a close, refined texture with genuine depth and warmth.
55% merino provides natural elasticity and structural consistency, while 45% cashmere transforms the hand feel entirely. The lashes carry that cashmere softness outward to every surface of the fabric, making Vittoria 1/20 as gentle against the skin as it looks. Loro Piana's sourcing standards ensure both fibers are of the highest possible grade, and the result is a lash yarn that performs at the level one expects from this house: impeccably soft, warm, and refined in every detail.
Vittoria 1/20 works beautifully as a standalone yarn, where the plush lash structure and merino-cashmere luxury can express themselves fully, and as an exceptional companion thread, adding warmth, softness, and a dense lash texture to any combination.
Versatile Use
Designed for open, relaxed knitting and crochet, Vittoria 1/20 works in 1 strand. Larger needles than the meterage suggests are essential, the lash structure needs space to open fully and breathe. For machine knitting, finer strand combinations are equally possible. Ideal for luxurious sweaters, cardigans, shawls, and statement accessories where plush merino-cashmere texture and Loro Piana quality define the piece.
