Brigitte n° 2 petrol blue 22

Lana Grossa knitting yarn Brigitte n° 2 petrol blue 22

This colour gives Lana Grossa Brigitte n° 2 a distinctive look while keeping the soft, lightweight character of the yarn at the centre of the project. The Brigitte n° 2 petrol blue 22 knitting yarn is suitable for knitters who want a soft yarn with enough volume for comfortable garments and accessories. Alpaca contributes a soft touch, cotton adds comfortable handling and wool supports the overall character of the yarn. Each ball weighs 50 grams and contains approximately 140 metres. For size 38-40, the stated guideline is 8 balls.

Features and wearing comfort

The recommended 6 to 6.5 mm needle size helps create an open, comfortable fabric with clear stitch definition. 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.

Project ideas for this colour

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

• a comfortable sweater
• a relaxed cardigan
• a generous scarf
• a hat
• a cowl
• a soft wrap

The shade petrol blue can play different roles in your colour palette. In a multicolour project, this shade can work as the main colour, an accent or a transition between two other tones. 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.

Practical knitting tips

Start with a sufficiently large swatch so you can judge both gauge and fabric. This makes it easier to choose the right size for your project. 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.
