Coarsehair

Coarsehair by Loro Piana
100% Carded Cashmere · 550m / 100g

A yarn with presence. Coarsehair by Loro Piana is a premium carded cashmere, prized for its exceptional softness and airy, fluffy texture. Unlike combed yarns, the carded structure holds more air, giving it a natural loft and a gentle halo that brings warmth and lightness to every stitch.

Available in melange, tweed, mouliné, and solid-dye shades, Coarsehair offers a full palette—from nuanced blends to clear, saturated tones. Ideal for lightweight knits with elegant drape and tactile richness. With 550 meters per 100 grams, it provides generous meterage for fine-gauge work without compromising softness.

Spun in Italy by one of the true maestros—Loro Piana—this yarn was developed for the knitwear collections of top-tier fashion houses. Now available for your own creations.
