The Phoenician composition of Lanas Stop is:

Viscose 100% Rayon is a manufactured and regenerated cellulose artificial fiber. In Europe it was called viscose. Cellulose from wood or cotton fibers is treated with sodium hydroxide, and then mixed with carbon disulfide to form cellulose xanthate, which is then dissolved in more sodium hydroxide. The resulting viscose is extruded in an acid bath either through a cellophane slot, or through a small hole to make rayon (sometimes called viscose). The acid converts the viscose back into cellulose.

The Phoenician characteristics of Lanas Stop are:

Each ball has 100 grams of weight and about 500 meters in length. You can work with Crochet 1.5 - 2. Machine washable at 30ºC temperature. Can be dried in a dryer. Suitable for ironing up to 110ºC. It is recommended to steam iron. Rayon is a very versatile fiber and has the same properties in terms of comfort of use as other natural fibers and can imitate the feel of silk, wool, cotton or linen. The fibers can be easily dyed in other colors such as red. Rayon fabrics are soft, light, cool, comfortable and very absorbent, but do not insulate the body, allowing perspiration. When burned, this type of fiber gives off a burnt-paper smell that is characteristic of cellulose-based fibers. One of the disadvantages of some types of rayon is its low resistance, especially in the wet state; in addition, it has the lowest elastic recovery of all fibers. However, HWM rayon or modal fiber is much stronger and more durable. The recommended care for normal rayon is based on dry cleaning. In contrast, rayon HWM can be machine washed.Fenicia of Lanas Stop ball of fine silk Ideal for crochet and knitting brightness
