Sometimes you want your fabric to convey a little more, to have subtle structure, texture, or that unexpected hand feel. ITO Gima 8.5 does just that: a crisp, lace-weight cotton with a flat, paper-like quality that softens beautifully over time, adding dimension and interest to every project.
PROMOTION
DESCRIPTION
You’ve probably worked with soft cottons that blend into the background, nice enough, but a little flat when your vision calls for something more tactile. It’s frustrating when your stitches look fine, but the fabric just doesn’t feel alive. You want to create pieces with more edge, more presence, without sacrificing usability.
That’s where this yarn shines. ITO Gima 8.5 offers something delightfully different: a crisp, almost linen-like feel that transforms with each wash and wear. It holds structure in a way most cottons won’t, making it ideal for designs that play with negative space, layering, or contrast. And as the fabric softens and evolves, so does your connection to what you’ve made.
It’s more than just cotton; it’s a creative experience. With each piece, you’ll build something tactile, expressive, and genuinely personal. It’s the kind of yarn that invites curiosity and adds quiet confidence to your making journey.
Not sure which colours to get? Purchase an ITO Gima Sample Card to see your options. Sample cards are recommended for true colours.

What is the texture of ITO Gima 8.5 yarn?
ITO Gima 8.5 has a unique flat, tape-like structure that gives it a crisp, paper-like texture. While it feels firm initially, it softens with washing and wear, making it an interesting choice for lightweight projects. Its structure adds a modern, slightly structured drape to garments and accessories.
How does the unique structure of Gima 8.5 affect finished projects?
The yarn’s flat, ribbon-like shape creates a fabric with a distinct, airy texture. When used in knitting or crochet, it produces a lightweight and breathable fabric with excellent stitch definition. This makes it ideal for structured garments, summer tops, scarves, and lacework that benefit from a crisp finish.
Is ITO Gima 8.5 suitable for summer garments?
