Take a journey with Fior di Cashmere to the vast horizon and ancient traditions of the Tibetan plateau. With this yarn not only will you create pieces of timeless elegance, but experience the breathlessness of this blend. By wedding Italian linen with Tibetan wool and cashmere, you will experience the hypnotizing power of this trio together.
mYak's Fior di Lino is a captivating yarn that seamlessly combines the spirit of Italian Linen, the delicate softness of Tibetan Baby Yak, and the luxurious depth of Tibetan Cloud wool. Prepare to dive into the lush beauty of Italy's countryside, the serene expanses of the Tibetan Plateau, and the timeless elegance of the natural world.
Colorways titled: Glacier, Fox, Tuscan Fields, Mountain Mist, and Watermelon Sorbet are part of mYak's special collaboration with designer Isabell Kraemer.
Kraemer says, "When Paola first told me about this latest yarn, I was really excited. A blend of Tibetan Cloud, Baby Yak and a bit of linen on top sounded perfect. And my expectations were more than fulfilled! Fior di Lino is a joy to knit with and produces a wonderfully soft yet beautifully supple fabric. The stitch definition and the drape are absolutely amazing. Perfect for sweaters and accessories. Knowing how important fair and safe working conditions are to mYak, along with their great love and respect for the environment, makes Fior di Lino a yarn I can recommend with all my knitter’s heart…. and I feel really honoured that mYak invited me to contribute to the colour palette of this beautiful yarn!”
Alongside their dedication to helping sustain the traditional way of life of the Tibetan nomads, co-founders Paola and Andrea, also craft all of their yarn bases in mills that emphasize fair labor practices, safe working environments, and a strong commitment to environmental sustainability.

Is it any wonder that a strong trend in knitwear patterns these days involves yarn with considerable fluff? Given the uncertainty in nearly every facet of life, the extra cuddly softness afforded both the maker and the wearer of the final piece makes yarns blended with fibers like suri alpaca and mohair all the more enticing. As we transition the seasons, let's gather together in craft with a Fluff-Along!
Choose a pattern that soothes your fashion spirit and pair it with a fluffy yarn to bring peace and calmness to your heart. Some of our favorite fluff yarns include Tumalo Fiber's Swanky Floof, Fiber MacGyver's Suri Silk, and Knitting for Olive's Soft Silk Mohair. If your project is asking for extra warmth to go with that fluff, look no further than Hélène Magnusson's hand-selected Icelandic Lambswool, found in her Love Story and Gilitrutt yarns.
While this Knit-Along (KAL) is open to any pattern using a fluff yarn, each Fancywork staffer has picked one for your consideration. Abby is eyeing the Bubblegum Sweater by Charlotte Sometime. Alison likes the simplicity and timelessness of PetiteKnit's Cloud Blouse. Dedra plans to cast on Andrea Mowry's Nebula. She'll be so cute with her overalls in this one! Elise is eager to knit an interpretation of her beloved Lake Michigan in the Idaho Sunset sweater by Caitlin Turowski. Emily's choice of the Theo Sweater by kolibri by johanna is fitting for her artistic fashion style. Kecia is casting on Instant Crush—an all-over colorwork cuddle fest. And we've got two suggestions designed by Tanja Koenigs. Maricela will rock the Feiya V Cardigan while our guest host for this KAL, Kate, will be looking trés chic in the AVA V Cardigan.
We love seeing what our community creates, and when you're able to include yarn from Fancywork in your project—even just a skein or two—it means the world to us. It's your support that makes community events like this possible, and we're so grateful for it. 🧡
Your co-hosts Dedra and Kate will be leading the Fluff-Along KAL and are excited to knit alongside you! We'll meet in the shop every other Saturday from 3:30–5:30pm, beginning September 24 and wrapping up November 14.
Come for the knitting, stay for the community. We can't wait to see your Fluff!

FAQs
What's a Knit-Along (or Crochet-Along, or Make-Along)?
A Knit-Along (KAL), Crochet-Along (CAL) or Make-Along (MAL) is a social event designed to bring the maker community together around a specific pattern or yarn – or sometimes both. Enjoy connecting with others while knitting or crocheting the same garment or working with a particular yarn together. This is a fantastic time to gather together with others in our fiber arts community, enjoy camaraderie, and get a little guidance and project support along the way.
What ISN'T a Knit-Along/Crochet-Along/Make-Along?
A KAL/CAL/MAL is not a class. You should be reasonably familiar with the techniques required to work through the project at hand. However, help is never far away! If you ever find yourself in need of extended project support, drop in to one of our Help Sessions, offered weekly on Wednesdays and Saturdays from 1-3pm.
But Stitch Stoppers aren’t just practical... they’re packed with personality. With a plethora of whimsical designs to choose from, you can pick the perfect stoppers to match your mood. From cheeky shapes that spark a chuckle to sweet designs that make you smile every time you sit down to knit, Stitch Stoppers add a dash of unexpected joy to your crafting journey.
Fits knitting needles sizes US 2 (2.75mm) - US 13 (9mm).
Gilitrutt is spun from fleeces that Hélène personally hand-selects and grades one by one after the first shearing of the Icelandic lambs. The carefully crafted result is an Icelandic lambswool yarn of unparalleled softness and fineness.
Gilitrutt’s two plies give it strength while maintaining a surprisingly soft hand and beautiful halo. Despite its fineness, it has all of the lightness and warmth expected from Icelandic wool yarns. This versatile yarn can be knitted with a variety of needle sizes and makes deliciously light sweaters as well as scarfs and mittens and is even suited for baby garments.
Hand Carders are used in pairs to prepare fibers to spin. Mix colors and fiber types to create your own one of a kind rolags! Then spin them yourself or pass them onto a fellow fiber friend.
Ashford Hand Carders are portable, lightweight, and quick to assemble. They have a slight curved bat with a large carding area. Designed with wire teeth that have a special protective coating and flexible rubber backing, these carders will last for a long time!
This slightly rustic, strong wool is perfect for durable sweaters. If you're looking for an extra cozy touch, combine it with Knitting for Olive's Soft Silk Mohair for perfectly matched tones. This pill-resistant yarn means you'll have a long-lasting wardrobe staple.
Heavy Merino's traceability makes it possible to identify the specific farms where the wool originates, ensuring that the animals are well cared for and the farmers are treated fairly, with good working conditions.
