Bjork Yarn: shimmering elegance and comfort for creations that shine

Bjork Yarn combines warmth, softness, and a unique light effect thanks to its pearlized laminated finish. Made of 48% wool, 30% acrylic, 8% polyamide, and 14% polyester, it offers the perfect balance of natural fibers and practicality. Proudly made in Italy, it stands out for its premium quality and ease of use, even for beginners, making it the ideal choice for creative and stylish winter projects.

A luminous effect with lasting softness

The highlight of Bjork is its shimmering laminated insert, which adds brightness without irritating the skin. Unlike traditional lamé yarns, it doesn’t scratch and feels pleasant to wear. Each 50 g skein (100 meters) works beautifully with 6 mm knitting needles or a 5 mm crochet hook, making it perfect for quick, cozy, and eye-catching projects.

Perfect for chic garments and sparkling accessories

Bjork is ideal for sweaters, cardigans, oversized scarves, and warm cowls, but also for fashionable bags and accessories. Its laminated effect enhances every stitch, turning each project into a unique, luminous creation.

10x10 swatches for accurate planning

For precise project planning, Tessiland recommends a 10x10 cm swatch: 22 rows x 17 stitches in stockinette stitch for knitting, and 18 rows x 15 stitches in single crochet for crochet. A practical tool to calculate the exact number of skeins and avoid waste.

Easy care for lasting brilliance

To preserve the shine and softness of Bjork Yarn, it’s best to hand wash the first few times to stabilize the stitches. Afterwards, you can machine wash on a delicate cycle with gentle detergent. The pearlized laminated effect will remain vibrant over time without fading.
