Rapallo 15000 by Ilaria Manufattura Lane S.R.L. is a premium 100% viscose yarn in super-fine weight featuring stunning melange dyeing that creates beautiful color variation throughout the skein. This high-quality viscose delivers exceptional drape, luminous sheen, and silky-smooth hand feel characteristic of refined rayon fibers. The yarn's glossy surface catches light beautifully, creating fabrics with elegant luster and fluid movement. The super-fine construction allows for versatile multi-strand combinations while the slippery texture requires careful handling during knitting.

Versatile Use

Designed for multi-strand knitting, Rapallo 15000 transitions from lace through fingering and DK weight. The viscose's natural qualities create fabrics with exceptional drape, lustrous finish, and refined elegance across all strand counts. The melange colorway adds visual interest and depth to every project. Ideal for elegant garments, draped accessories, and projects where viscose's silk-like qualities and beautiful sheen take center stage. Note that the slippery texture benefits from experienced hands or added care with stitch markers.

Care Instructions

Hand wash gently in cool water

Use mild detergent suitable for delicate fibers

Lay flat to dry on a horizontal surface

Do not wring, twist, or agitate

Viscose becomes weaker when wet, handle with extra care

Steam lightly at low temperature if necessary

Swatching Required

A washed and thoroughly dried swatch is essential. Viscose can relax and grow after washing, so accurate swatching is critical for proper fit. The slippery texture and drape affect gauge significantly, so careful attention ensures proper yardage estimates.
