Brigitte n° 2 grey green 18

Lana Grossa knitting yarn Brigitte n° 2 grey green 18

For a soft and comfortable knitting project, this colour of Lana Grossa Brigitte n° 2 offers a versatile starting point for garments and accessories. The Brigitte n° 2 grey green 18 knitting yarn is suitable for knitters who want a soft yarn with enough volume for comfortable garments and accessories. The fibre mix is a good option for knitters who enjoy a soft yarn while still wanting a neat and visible stitch pattern. Each ball weighs 50 grams and contains approximately 140 metres. For size 38-40, the stated guideline is 8 balls.

Why choose Brigitte n° 2?

Knitted on 6 to 6.5 mm needles, the yarn suits straightforward stitches as well as more pronounced textures. The stated gauge is 16 stitches x 21 rows over 10 x 10 cm. This knitting yarn from the Lana Grossa brand is therefore useful for projects where comfort, a tidy fabric and readable stitches all matter. The relatively generous needle size is also approachable for beginners, while experienced knitters can use the yarn for texture and simple pattern work.

What can you knit with it?

Depending on the pattern and shape, this colour can be used for several types of project, including:

• a casual pullover
• a long cardigan
• a wide scarf
• a snood
• a beanie
• a shawl

The shade grey green can play different roles in your colour palette. This shade can stand on its own or be paired with a lighter, darker or neutral colour for a balanced combination. For a larger garment, it is useful to compare the balls before you begin and decide which colour will be dominant and which will be used for accents.

Gauge, colour and care

Measure a swatch before committing to the full project; the reference gauge is 16 stitches and 21 rows over 10 x 10 cm. Every knitter has a slightly different tension, so the recommended needle size should be treated as a starting point rather than a fixed rule. Wash and dry the finished piece according to Lana Grossa’s label instructions; gentle treatment is the safest approach for an alpaca blend.

If your project needs several balls, it is sensible to plan the full quantity before you start. Check the pattern, size and required yardage in advance. With approximately 140 metres per 50 grams, this yarn can also be compared with similar yarn weights when you are considering whether it will suit a particular pattern.
