Technical analysis: what are you buying?
Wild represents an innovative choice in the world of decorative yarns: the combination of viscose and polyamide creates the perfect balance of natural sheen, softness to the touch and structural durability. The shaded fur effect is not just aesthetic, but designed to ensure smooth crafting and long-lasting results. Let’s take a closer look at the features that make this yarn so special.
1. Composition and Properties of Wild Yarn
The balanced composition of Wild brings together the best of two fibres:
- 55% Viscose: a man-made fibre of cellulose origin that gives silky shine, exceptional softness and moisture absorption. Viscose gives the yarn a fluid drape and an elegant appearance, enhancing the colour shading
- 45% Polyamide: a synthetic fibre that ensures mechanical strength, elasticity and durability over time. It protects the fluffy structure from wear and helps prevent deformation during use
The shaded fur effect is achieved through long fibres that create three-dimensional volume, while the progressive colour shading adds visual depth. The weight of 50g for 65 metres indicates a bulky consistency ideal for projects that require visual impact with just a few hours of work.
2. Fur Effect Texture and Aesthetic Result
Wild’s distinctive look lies in its three-dimensional fluffy texture that recreates the effect of natural fur without ethical compromise. The long fibres arrange themselves to create soft, enveloping volume, perfect for:
- Decorative inserts: collars, cuffs, edges and trims that add a luxury touch to basic garments
- Stripes and intarsia: texture contrasts on sweaters, cardigans and accessories
- Full garments: vests, boleros, shawls and neck warmers with strong visual impact
- Fashion accessories: bags, clutches, headbands and decorative brooches
The graduated shades create natural colour transitions that enhance every stitch. The colourways range from animal-inspired combinations to fantasy candy palettes such as unicorn, rainbow and pastel tones, offering endless creative possibilities.
3. Working with Needles and Crochet Hook
Wild works smoothly with 8-9 needles or a 7-8 crochet hook, sizes that guarantee proper stitch definition without excessively compressing the fluffy fibres:
- Knitting: simple stitches such as stockinette or garter stitch enhance the volume effect. Avoid cables or overly elaborate stitches that could hide the distinctive texture
- Crochet: single crochet, half double crochet and double crochet create dense, compact surfaces ideal for structured accessories
- Yarn tension: keep a medium tension to allow the fibres to expand naturally without creating holes in the fabric
- Stitch visibility: the fluffy texture partially hides individual stitches, making this yarn suitable for beginners too
Its quick workability is one of its main strengths: with 65 metres you can complete an infinity cowl, a pair of matching cuffs or an extra-large headband in just a few hours.
4. Creative Uses and Recommended Projects
The versatility of Wild allows you to move from small accessories to statement garments:
- Collars and neck warmers: the perfect one-ball project, warm and eye-catching
- Decorative cuffs: to add to plain sweaters for a touch of personality
- Sleeveless vests: by combining several balls for a trendy garment with strong visual impact
- Bags and clutches: the polyamide structure supports defined shapes, while the fur effect adds glamour
- Applications and patches: create details to sew onto jackets, backpacks or hats
- Decorative blankets: alternating stripes of Wild and smooth yarns for contrasting textures
The animal-inspired shades lend themselves to bold, contemporary projects, while the candy shadings are perfect for creations intended for children or for those who love kawaii and imaginative aesthetics.
5. Benefits of Viscose and Long-Lasting Durability
The predominant presence of viscose offers tangible benefits:
- Breathability: the fibre allows air circulation, preventing the overheating typical of some synthetics
- Comfort on the skin: soft, non-irritating texture, also suitable for sensitive skin
- Moisture absorption: helps maintain a feeling of freshness even during prolonged wear
- Natural sheen: colours appear vivid and luminous thanks to the way light reflects on the fibres
Polyamide contributes to durability: it prevents the fluffy parts from fraying and helps the garment retain its shape even after repeated use. Its abrasion resistance is particularly important for accessories such as bags and headbands that undergo repeated mechanical stress. With the right care, items made with Wild keep their luxurious look over time.
How to preserve your garments over time
To preserve the fur effect and the vibrancy of the shades, Wild requires specific care during maintenance:
- Hand washing: use cold or lukewarm water (max 30°C) with a gentle detergent for delicates or wool, avoiding vigorous rubbing that could felt the fluffy fibres
- Careful rinsing: remove all soap residue completely to maintain the original softness
- Gentle squeezing: do not twist the garment; gently press to remove excess water, then wrap it in a clean towel
- Flat drying: lay flat on a horizontal surface away from direct heat sources and sunlight, which could fade the colours
- No spin cycle or tumble dryer: mechanical action would irreparably damage the fluffy structure
- Gentle brushing: once dry, lightly brush with a soft-bristle brush to restore volume to the fibres
- Storage: store folded (not hanging) in a dry place, optionally with a natural moth repellent if it contains viscose

How many balls of Wild are needed to make a collar?
For a simple collar or standard-size neck warmer (60-70cm circumference, 20-25cm height), 1 ball of 50g is enough. If you want a fuller infinity cowl or a double-wrap version, allow for 2 balls. For an extra-large snood, you can use up to 3 balls, making the most of different shades for an even richer colour effect.
Is Wild suitable for full garments or only for inserts?
Wild is versatile: thanks to the quality of the viscose and the careful treatment, it can be used both for full garments such as vests, boleros and shawls, and for decorative inserts such as collars, cuffs, trims and stripes. The choice depends on the desired effect: full garments create strong visual impact, while inserts add luxury details to projects made with smooth yarns.
How does Wild yarn behave while working?
Wild works smoothly with 8-9 needles or a 7-8 crochet hook. The fluffy texture partially hides the stitches, making small irregularities less noticeable, which is ideal for beginners. Keep a medium tension to allow the fibres to expand. The shades develop gradually along the ball, creating natural transitions without the need for colour changes.
Are Wild’s shades uniform across different balls?
Tessiland indicates the batch/lot number directly on the product page, which is a unique feature in the sector. For projects requiring multiple balls, buy from the same lot to ensure uniform shading. If that lot is sold out, customer service (real people, not bots) can help you choose compatible lots or creatively match different tones.
Is Wild a warm yarn or also suitable for mid-season projects?
Thanks to its breathable viscose, Wild provides warmth without excessive overheating, making it suitable for autumn, winter and early spring. For accessories such as neck warmers and cuffs, it offers thermal protection, while for vests and boleros it creates a decorative layer without adding too much weight. Its breathability makes it more comfortable than 100% synthetic fluffy yarns.
Which stitches best enhance Wild’s fur effect?
Simple stitches enhance the texture: stockinette, garter stitch and seed stitch in knitting; single crochet, half double crochet or double crochet in crochet. Avoid cables, lace stitches or complex patterns that would hide the fluffy fibres. Wild’s beauty lies in its natural volumetric texture, which does not need additional elaboration.
How can Wild be combined with other yarns in mixed projects?
Wild pairs beautifully with smooth yarns such as cottons, merino wools or solid-colour acrylics. Create texture contrasts by using it for stripes, trims or panels on garments made with classic yarns. The shaded tones make it easy to pick up one of the colours in the main yarn, creating visual harmony. You can also experiment with metallic yarns or lurex for even more glamorous effects.
Does Wild yarn shed during use?
A slight initial shedding of short fibres is normal in fur-effect yarns and usually decreases after the first uses. The 45% polyamide content minimises this phenomenon compared to low-cost 100% acrylic fluffy yarns. During crafting and the first washes, some fibres may come loose: these are production residues and do not compromise the structure of the finished item.
Is Wild suitable for children’s projects?
Yes, Wild is suitable for children’s accessories such as neck warmers, hats and decorative appliqués on knitwear. The softness of viscose and the absence of irritating components make it comfortable to wear. Avoid using it for babies under 12 months for safety reasons due to the risk of fibre ingestion. The candy and fantasy colourways are especially loved for children’s creations.
Can I machine wash garments made with Wild?
Hand washing is strongly recommended to preserve the fur effect. If you need to use a washing machine, select the delicates/wool cold programme (max 30°C), place the garment in a protective laundry bag and switch off the spin cycle. This method still carries risks for the texture: hand washing ensures better results and longer durability.
Which Wild colourways are the most popular?
Animal-inspired colourways are highly sought after for contemporary fashion accessories. Candy shades such as pink-lilac-blue, rainbow and pastel tones appeal to those who love imaginative and kawaii aesthetics. The natural versions with shaded greys, browns and beiges offer versatile elegance. The choice depends on personal style and the project: Tessiland offers a wide colour range.
How much does it cost to make a project with Wild compared to other decorative yarns?
Wild offers excellent value for money: its viscose-polyamide composition delivers better performance than low-cost 100% acrylic fluffy yarns. With 65 metres per ball, you can complete full projects with a contained investment. Its durability and aesthetic result over time more than make up for the initial cost, making Wild a smart choice for those seeking quality without spending too much.
