Mango – color change, summer atmosphere and knitwear that feels light
Mango was created for those of you who love a vivid expression in your knitting, without having to change colors yourself along the way. The colors glide softly from shade to shade and give a modern, summery look - even in a very simple knit. The yarn's fiber mix makes it an obvious choice for warm weather: the cotton gives softness and a nice mesh image, the linen adds a light natural "grip" and extra breathability, and the viscose gives a beautiful fall and a discreet glow to the surface.
Mango is part of Lana Gattos SS26 Fashion Collection and is Limited Edition, which means that it is only produced for a limited period – when the colors are gone, they may disappear again.
Knit Mango alone – or Mix & Match with Pineapple
Mango works really well as a single yarn, where the color changes are allowed to play the main role. But it has also been developed to be combined with Pineapple from the same SS26 Fashion Collection, if you want to create more depth, contrast or structure in your expression. This makes it easy to get a more "designed" result - without making the project difficult. Pineapple is developed in the same colors as Mango and will therefore give a coordinated result!
What can you knit in Mango?
Mango is a classic summer yarn in use – light, usable and obvious for clothing that must be comfortable against the skin:
- tops and tees
- short-sleeved blouses
- dresses and skirts
- light summer blouses and nice basic styles
- structured knits, rib and simple patterns (the color changes do the work for you)
