Filcolana Paia

Filcolana Paia – Soft Glitter Yarn for Knitting

Filcolana Paia is a fine and beautifully sparkling glitter yarn designed to add a touch of shimmer to your knitting. Made from 67% viscose and 33% metallic polyester, Paia is softer than many traditional metallic and sparkle yarns thanks to its high viscose content.

Paia is designed to be held together with another yarn. Pair it with wool, merino, mohair, alpaca or your favourite knitting yarn to add anything from a subtle shimmer to a more festive sparkle. This versatile effect yarn is perfect for sweaters, cardigans, shawls, hats and accessories.

With an impressive 245 metres in each 25 g skein, a little Paia goes a long way.
