Are you crazy about Twister? Then you will love Twister Glitter too, a really soft cake yarn with stunning color transitions, that unfold into a great range of color combinations.
With its composition of 53% cotton,43% acrylic, and 4% polyester we blended the softness and breathability of the first, together with the strength and color retention of the latter, plus a barely-felt touch of glitters. Your finished creations will be, comfortable, durable, and lightweight. Each cake provides a length of 1000 m (1094 yds), hence one skein will be enough for plenty of projects such as scarves and shawls.
The amazing colors unravel as you go and it is a true pleasure to watch them progress with every stitch. A tiny knot is found in every instance the thread changes color.
Its color palette really has it all, offering vibrant and fun, as well as elegant and subtle. Twister Glitter is highly flexible and works well with a range of needle and hook sizes. You can scale down by half for a tighter effect or up for a lighter, airier one. We always recommend you swatch the yarn to make sure you achieve the desired look. You can double it for a thicker sparklier effect, or use it with Twister Solid as an accent for edges or sleeves.
Whether you are after a bold statement or a gentle gradient, Twister Glitter's unique combinations are sure to inspire your creativity.

This yarn is just so pretty! Using the Mermaids color I am crocheting the Timeless Shawl Hobbii pattern. This is my first time using the Twister Glitter yarn and I am amazed that the strand of glitter is so strong! It stays nicely wrapped in the plies and doesn’t catch on my Clover hook. I don’t recommend using a bamboo hook or Susan Bates hooks with this yarn…I tried both and the yarn tends to catch on them and split…this yarn definitely needs a smooth hook.

This was the first time working with this yarn, and I am so impressed. I usually always start with a simple stitch when trying yarn, and then switch up to a more decorative stitch, but this yarn was so beautiful even in a simple stitch, that I couldn't stop crocheting, so it ended up being a wrap. The yardage, and the drape are a giant bonus. Beautiful yarn, I highly recommend.

Made a center start granny square blanket with this, and LOVED how it came out. The glitter adds a wonderful sparkle, but isn't itchy. It also didn't separate from the rest of the yarn like some other glitter yarn I've used before has. Used the color ice sculpture, and I think this might be a regular for lovey sized blankets for all my friends' babies!

This yarn was excellent to work with. I had to frog it a multitude of times and it held up like an absolute champ (I learned how to read patterns and how to cable and the beginning of this pattern was rough so at least 10 times like closer to 20). Despite the glitter, the yarn is still very soft and nice to the touch.

Absolute stunning colors, and the feel is beyond soft! The yarn is well made, and in encountered no bulky snags or knots while working with it. I made a beautiful shawl, which I am going to have a hard time deciding whether to keep it or sell it. It's so beautiful! This yarn is by far my favorite
