Coloured anodised copper wire yarn on spools for machine knitting, for knitting sculptural objects, accessories and jewelry.
Once knitted the wire is bendable into interesting shapes and textures. It can be folded, pleated and distorted into any shape you can imagine.
The wire yarn can be slightly difficult to use, so we recommend you watch one of our instruction videos in advance to give you some hints and tips. We don't recommend this yarn for beginners. The wire yarn is brittle so you must knit slowly and steadily. It works best when mixed with a more stable traditional yarn or multiple wire threads are used together. We recommend you knit on a single bed domestic knitting machines. Don't use on a ribber or double bed industrial knitting machine.
Sample photos show the yarn knitted up, and striped or mixed with Superkid Mohair Yarn.
Due to the anodising process there is more colour variation within each colour than for dyed yarns. We will try to pick spools that match as closely as possible but there may be variation between different orders. We recommend that you come into the shop if an exact match is important to you.
Colours are photographic representations only. Please see our Terms & Conditions for a note on colour and weights.
