Camel blend - lace

Camel Blend – Lace is an exclusive lace yarn from Fru Krogh—a delicate blend of 50% baby camel and 50% silk, spun into a fine 2-ply yarn with an impressive yardage of 800 m per 100 g. The natural, warm camel color combined with the sheen of the silk gives the yarn an organic and luxurious look that is beautiful in its own right—without any added color.

Camel Blend – Lace is the perfect yarn for shawls, lacework, and lightweight knitting projects that require maximum drape and delicacy. It has very distinct and beautiful stitch definition, and after blocking, the knitwork holds its shape beautifully and drapes open and gracefully. Many might view it as a lace yarn suitable only for shawls, but it also makes lovely lightweight sweaters. If you combine it with a strand of silk mohair, for example, it looks great on a size 4.5 needle—and if you’re a weaver, you’ve found a new friend. It creates a genuine fabric, perhaps even setting a new trend.

The Difference Between Camel Blend Lace and Camel Blend Classic

Both yarns share the same luxurious fiber blend of baby camel and silk, but differ in weight and intended use. Camel Blend – Lace is a 2-ply yarn with 800 m per 100 g—it is intended for delicate lace projects, shawls, and very lightweight knits. Camel Blend – Classic is a 4-ply yarn with 400 m per 100 g and is suitable for sweaters and projects with more body. Both are naturally dyed and Oeko-Tex certified.

Knitting Tips for Camel Blend – Lace

A lace yarn like this rewards attention to detail and patience. Use fine needles (2.0–2.5 mm) for delicate lace projects, or work it double-stranded or combined with mohair on slightly larger needles for a different look. Always remember to block your lace knitting afterward—this is when the yarn truly reveals its beauty and opens up the pattern. Always wash gently by hand in lukewarm water.
