Knit Picks Samia

Luxury silk-cupro DK with exceptional lustre and drape. Sustainable fibres for beautiful summer garments and accessories.

What is Samia?

Knit Picks Samia is a light from Knit Picks. Composition: 85% silk / 15% cupro. One skein holds 137 m of yarn and weighs 50 g.

How the yarn behaves

Cupro-and-mulberry-silk blend with a smooth, slick hand and a strong shine. Glides through the fingers; drapes heavily with very little memory, so the fabric flows rather than holds structure. Cupro is rayon made from cotton waste, which gives Samia softness similar to silk at a lower cost. Strong fit for lightweight tops, elegant shawls, summer scarves and any project where drape and shine matter. Wet-block to bring the surface to life.
