Why choose YarnArt Paillettes?
  • Sequin Carry-Along Thread: Paillettes is a fine metallic polyester thread set with small sequins, 800 m on a 50 g cone. YarnArt rates it Super Fine (1), and most makers hold it together with a main yarn.
  • Thread-Fine in Hand: On its own it behaves almost like sewing thread, so feed it alongside your main yarn with light, even tension. Reviewers say the sequins stay on through knitting, crochet and wear.
  • Shimmer for Tops, Shawls: Airy or fine companions show it best, giving tops, shawls and summer accessories a scattered sparkle rather than costume glitter. Hand wash at 40°C, dry flat and never iron the sequins.
Description

YarnArt Paillettes – Sparkling Companion Thread with Sequins

YarnArt Paillettes is the secret ingredient to glamorous knitting. This ultra-fine carry-along thread features tiny, light-catching sequins woven into a metallic base. It is designed to be held together with another yarn—whether it's wool, mohair, or cotton—to instantly transform a plain project into a dazzling, festive masterpiece without changing the gauge of your work.

💡 Mix & Match: Since this thread is as fine as lace (cobweb weight), it pairs perfectly with fluffy yarns. Combine it with YarnArt Angora Star to create an elegant evening shawl that shimmers.

Why choose this sequin yarn?

  • Subtle Elegance: The sequins are small and spaced delicately, providing a sophisticated shimmer rather than a bulky, costume-like glitter.
  • Versatile Pairing: You can add this thread to almost any project. It adds a touch of magic to winter beanies, scarves, or even summer tops without altering the pattern size.
  • Massive Yardage: A single 50g ball contains an impressive 800 meters (875 yds), which is usually enough to add sparkle to an entire sweater or a large wrap.

TIPS & TRICKS

Mix & Match: Choose a fine or airy companion. One maker found the sequins disappeared into a dense 125 m/50 g cotton, while YarnArt's own samples hold Paillettes with YarnArt Mohair Trendy and YarnArt Intense Linen, where the sparkle shows through. Check the cone as you go and smooth out any loose metallic loops.

About Product

What needle size do I use with YarnArt Paillettes?

Use the needle or hook your main yarn calls for. Paillettes is a lace-weight thread, so holding it alongside barely changes your gauge; still, knit a swatch with both strands, and if the fabric feels tight, go up half a size. Worked alone for fine edgings, the label suggests 2.5 mm needles or a 3 mm hook.

How much Paillettes do I need to add sparkle to a sweater?

Held together throughout, you use the same length of Paillettes as of main yarn. One 800 m cone covers 800 m of main yarn, so a sweater using 1,100–1,400 m needs 2 cones. For sparkle only on the yoke, cuffs or stripes, one cone is usually plenty, with thread left over for a matching hat.

Can you crochet with Paillettes?

Yes. Hold it with your main yarn and crochet as normal using that yarn's hook; the thread is fine enough not to change your stitch counts. Open crochet such as mesh, shells or granny stitch lets the sequins catch the light, and taller stitches like double crochet show more of them than compact ones.

YarnArt Paillettes vs YarnArt Sparkle: what's the difference?

Paillettes is a sequinned carry-along thread: metallic polyester set with small sequins, 800 m per 50 g, for scattered sparkle. YarnArt Sparkle has no sequins; it is a fine metallic thread of polyester and polyamide, 160 m per 25 g, for an even shimmer or for crocheting trims on its own. Lanoso Parla has the same composition as Paillettes.
