Eyelash

A soft, fluffy eyelash yarn in 100% polyester with a fur-like texture. It adds instant dimension and plush volume to your creations, and works alone or held alongside a worsted or aran yarn for extra depth.

Estako Eyelash has plush strands that create gentle volume without heavy bulk. The forgiving texture softens the look of each stitch and helps blend small imperfections, so your fabric stays expressive and even.

Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle and lay flat to dry to keep the eyelash strands full and fluffy. Do not iron directly. A light shake or brush restores the fur-like texture after washing.

What is eyelash yarn and how do I use it?

Eyelash is a 100% polyester novelty yarn with fine strands, or lashes, along a thin core that create a soft, furry texture. It is used most often as trim and accent rows, on collars, cuffs, scarves and costumes, rather than for whole garments.

What is Eyelash best for?

Fluffy scarves and cowls, decorative trim and edging, costume and dress-up pieces, and textured accents on hats and bags. It is a #4 Worsted novelty, worked with a 3 mm hook or 4 to 5 mm needles.

Any tips for working with eyelash yarn?

Work slowly and count stitches by feel rather than by sight, since the lashes hide the stitch loops. A slightly larger hook or needle and a light touch make it easier, and gently pull the lashes to the right side as you go.

How do I wash Eyelash projects?

Hand wash or use a cold gentle cycle inside a laundry bag, then lay flat to dry. Do not brush the surface hard, and gently shake or finger-comb the lashes to fluff them.
