Katia Syros lace knitting yarn

Katia Syros lace yarn has a lustrous drape and a subtle textured finish that suits crochet and lace knitting. It's blend of 45% polyester, 28% cotton and 27% acrylic is machine washable at 30' and because of the synthetic content Syros won't stretch when blocking out - so you might want to use larger needles to get the desired lacy effect or try a swatch first. 50g, 280m,306 yds.  As with any lace yarn, the tension varies with the pattern, but 1.75mm crochet hook or 2-2.25mm needles are a good starting point
