America's knitters/crocheters are discovering Europe's most polular yarn. Kauni Effekt is a 2 ply Heavy Fingering/Sport weight yarn dyed in stunningly beautiful combinations. Kauni yarn is Shetland-like in style (perfect for steeked designs), woolen spun, and great fun to knit with. The long colour gradations of the Effektgarn creates a dramatic fabric. It makes incredible wraps, vests, sweaters and more.
 
It is the perfect yarn for fair isle knitting, hats, gloves, sweaters and it makes stunning shawls! Let your imagination take over. Because of the long color runs, not all skeins will look alike. Please see the knit-ups provided for each color. 
 
This yarn lends itself to knitting patterns shaped with short rows, like “Wingspan,” “Dreambird,” and “Bermuda Scarf,”  and crochet patterns such as "Sophie's Dream" where the changing color highlights the construction of the piece.
