Galaxie's secret is its super shiny metallic-effect strand that catches the light and gives it a discreet sparkle. It's a lovely yarn with a very regular structure that will suit your warmer winter knits. (Please note these are the 50 gram balls and not Galaxie 100 (100 gram balls) that superseded it.)
