UNIVERSAL Yashi in Ballerina is a soft, papery raffia yarn made for modern craft projects, from summer accessories to structured décor. Each 40 g ball packs 90 m (99 yds) of 100% raffia, giving bags, hats, baskets, and placemats a crisp, woven look without heavy bulk. For a firm fabric, try 5.5 mm (US 9) needles or a 5 mm (US H-8) hook and aim for about 15 sts × 19 rows per 10 cm (4 in.); hand wash and dry flat.
