Gedifra yarn tasting - una festa bellisima

A lovely, well-established yarn line, Gedifra brings luxury fibers, classic european styling to the modern knitter.  Fans of couture fashion and Chanel-style fabrics will love Metal Tweed, a fabulous blend of twinkle and tweed that manages to be both glamorous and earthy and look equally at home with velvet or jeans.  That's my kinda girl! 

Anyone looking to get in on the Danish cozy trend, Hygge, will love Gedifra's Perulana and Giotto Molto Grande.  Perulana is super bulky on steroids, and Giotto Molto Grande is absolutely something else altogether.  Size 17, 19, 35, and US 50 needles will get you Hygge in a Hurry! 

Lovely laceweight alpaca takes on a fun self-striping twist in Soffio Colore.  Work it by itself for a gossamer fabric, or let it add a colorful halo to any happy yarn partnership.

Delizia, Italian for delicious, is a perfectly named yarn if I've ever seen one.  This super-bulky alpaca is soft and cuddly in a yummy, flattering palette.

And the designs.  Oh my goodness, the designs - right off the runways of Milan.  If you don't believe me, start following Valentino and Fendi on Instagram.  You'll see what I mean.
