I used this yarn for a brioche scarf. It is quite lovely and has a nice sparkle to it. The only drawback is that is does shed a bit, the drape is nice.

Comments about S.Charles Collezione Luna:
This yarn was purchased to make a lacy evening wrap for a black tie affair in moderate climate (LA in winter). The cobalt is striking against black, and it elevates an outfit to elegant evening wear due to the metallic sparkle and silk sheen, as well as the mohair halo, and I received many compliments on my wrap. It is lighter than air, soft, soft, soft, yet provides just the right amount of warmth and glamour. I highly recommend this yarn, as the price point is also quite reasonable for such a beautiful yarn. I found nothing negative about this yarn nor how it knits, it is quite lovely.

I made the ICE QUEEN cowl with this and it is absolutely beautiful - light, soft & warm.
The sparkly thread was perfect.

Comments about S.Charles Collezione Luna:
I'm making a lace shawl with the colour Silver. The yarn is very soft once knit, with a lovely halo and just a bit of sparkle, quite subdued, but adding a touch of night elegance. As a word of caution, it needs a light hand, and snags even on itself - but this is expected on a fine mohair. Very satisfied, will use it again when the project calls for this kind of material.

Comments about S.Charles Collezione Luna:
Love Luna yarn. Made beautiful scarves. Was disappointed in the color of Luna, the color on the web site is not the color of the real yarn. It is much paler in person than the intense
color on the web. I would recommend this yarn to a knitting friend, however I would caution them about the color discrepancy.

Made two shawls and am making a cardigan. The stitch definition is great.....I like it better than Rowan, kid silk haze and cascade's seta. The sparkle is a perfect touch!!

Comments about S.Charles Collezione Luna:
I am knitting a lace shawl with this, just to see how it knits up. I've been knitting lace for a while now, but always with a heavier yarn. This stuff is amazing, I am knitting with size 5 needles it gives the lace more airiness and the result is almost weightless the lace pattern is swathed in a diaphanous cloud.
