It’s made from a unique blend: 41% acrylic, 23% metallic fibre, 18% polyamide, 12% mohair, and 6% superwash wool. The mix creates a soft, brushed texture with a subtle shimmer. The mohair adds warmth and a light halo, while the metallic thread gives a gentle sparkle.

This yarn is perfect for elegant projects such as shawls, wraps, cardigans, or festive jumpers. It adds glamour to simple patterns and works well for evening or special-occasion wear. The colour range includes rich, stylish shades with names like Graceful, Chic, and Glamour.

Because of the mohair and metallic fibres, the texture is fluffy and may hide detailed stitches. It’s best for smooth or lightly textured patterns. The yarn feels soft but may be slightly tickly for very sensitive skin.

Care instructions

recommend hand-washing and laying flat to dry. Machine washing isn’t advised.

Overall, James C. Brett Elegance DK is a beautiful, shimmering yarn that combines comfort and style. It’s ideal when you want your project to look refined and luxurious. Use it for statement pieces that need a bit of sparkle and softness.
