Gruppo Filpucci S.P.A. · Top Stream 1100 · 110m/100g (120yds/3.5oz) · 100% Merino (WV)

Top Stream 1100 by Gruppo Filpucci S.P.A. is a pure merino cord yarn of a very particular kind — an airy, open cord structure that is light and voluminous in a way that conventional aran-weight yarns are not. The thread is twisted into a loose, breathable rope that traps air within its structure, creating fabric that has genuine bulk and warmth without any corresponding heaviness. It drapes with unexpected softness for its weight class.

100% merino ensures the hand feel lives up to the construction — exceptionally soft, naturally warm, and comfortable against the skin. The open cord structure shows stitch definition with clarity while keeping the fabric light and wearable. This is an aran-weight yarn that does not feel like an aran-weight yarn — it feels considerably less demanding than its meterage suggests.

Versatile Use

Top Stream 1100 is an aran-weight yarn designed to be worked as is. The open cord construction is most expressive at a gauge that allows the structure to breathe and the stitches to read clearly. For machine knitting, finer strand combinations are equally possible. Ideal for sweaters, cardigans, relaxed tops, and accessories where lightweight warmth and airy cord texture define the design.
