Soffio 003 Red

Lana Grossa knitting yarn – Soffio 003 Red

Soffio 003 Red knitting yarn is a beautiful choice for anyone who loves soft, lightweight yarn with a refined feel. This yarn is lovely to work with in everyday knitting projects and is suitable for both beginners and more experienced makers. The rich red shade brings warmth and character to your handmade pieces, while the fine blend of fibers gives your work a comfortable, elegant finish. If you enjoy yarn that feels special without being difficult to handle, this Lana Grossa option is well worth a closer look.

Made from 60% merino superfine wool, 30% organic cotton, and 10% cashmere, this yarn combines softness, breathability, and a gentle touch. Each 25 gram ball gives an impressive 212 meters, so you get plenty of length for delicate yet cozy projects. It is designed for needle sizes 3.5 to 4 mm, making it easy to use for many garments and accessories. With a tension of 29 stitches and 35 rows over 10 x 10 cm, it is especially suited to lighter fabrics with a neat, polished look.

Features & benefits

One of the nicest things about this Lana Grossa knitting yarn is the balance between softness and definition. The merino and cashmere help create a smooth, gentle feel against the skin, while the cotton adds freshness and lightness. This means your finished item can feel warm without becoming too heavy. It is a great choice for garments and accessories that you want to wear comfortably indoors or between seasons.

When you knit with Soffio 003 Red, your stitches can look fine, even, and well defined. Simple stitch patterns, stockinette, ribbing, and textured details all have a clean appearance. The fabric also has a graceful drape, so shawls, cardigans, and lightweight sweaters can fall nicely and feel pleasant when worn. For many knitters, this makes the yarn a smart value: a small ball offers a generous running length, and the fiber blend gives a luxurious touch in a practical way.

For garment planning, about 7 balls are recommended for a women’s size 38–40, which helps you estimate your project more easily before you begin.

Project ideas

This knitting yarn is versatile and works well for many stylish and wearable projects. Here are a few ideas to inspire you:

• A lightweight sweater in a bold red shade
• A soft cardigan for layering in spring or autumn
• An elegant shawl with simple lace or textured stitches
• A comfortable hat or beanie with a smooth finish
• A baby cardigan or baby accessory made with a gentle fiber blend
• A fine scarf that feels soft and light around the neck

Tips & care

Before starting your project, it is always a good idea to make a swatch. This helps you check whether your tension matches the suggested 29 stitches and 35 rows over 10 cm, and it also lets you see how the fabric feels on your chosen needles. If you are between needle sizes, test both 3.5 mm and 4 mm to find the look you prefer.

The red color is a great option if you want to make a statement, but it also pairs nicely with neutrals such as cream, grey, beige, or black. If you enjoy combining yarns, try using this as a main yarn in a project where color contrast or subtle details matter. Because the fiber blend includes merino, organic cotton, and cashmere, gentle care is the safest choice. Hand washing or following the care guidance on the ball band is recommended to help preserve softness, shape, and color over time.

If you are looking for a trusted brand with quality fibers and beautiful shades, Lana Grossa offers a dependable option for your next knitting plan. Whether you are making a gift or something special for yourself, Soffio 003 Red can help you create a piece that looks refined and feels comfortable to wear.
