Filatura di Crosa Brilliante is a lightly spun blend of cotton and viscose. The two fibers take the dye differently creating a beautiful, stunning contrast in both the color and texture. The viscose in Filatura di Crosa Brilliante creates high sheen, while the cotton contrasts it by being low sheen.
I've worked with splitty yarns before, but none of them were as bad as this yarn. It pretty much falls apart in your hands. It's also very slippery, even the ball can't stay together once you touch it. Only giving it two stars because the color is very pretty.
