Rubí Flexi: The Yarn That Transforms Your Creations

Rubí Flexi is an elongated, soft raffia yarn, 100g and 100m, with a twisted effect, ideal for crochet and durable accessories. Available in six colors, it combines durability and softness for unique projects.

What is Rubí Flexi?

If you're someone who enjoys knitting as a personal ritual, Rubí Flexi by Lanas Rubí is made for you. This material allows you to create beautiful pieces and is also designed to last. Its twisted-effect strand provides special structural firmness, but with just enough softness to make working with it comfortable.

We're talking about an elongated raffia yarn that offers 100 grams and 100 meters of pure versatility. This amount is sufficient for small accessories or complete medium-sized pieces. You can combine several skeins without losing visual continuity or texture.

Technical Characteristics That Make a Difference

• Medium thickness that provides body without rigidity
• 100% durable polyester
• OEKO-TEX® Standard 100 certification
• Ribbon-shaped strand with a slight twist (twisted effect)
• Available in six colors (101 to 106)
• Does not fatigue hands; ideal for long sessions

Uses and Creative Applications

• Shopper bags, clutches, and crossbody bags
• Decorative baskets and organizers
• Hats and summer accessories
• Hanging lamps, woven screens
• Combinations with jute or leather for premium finishes

Combinations and Finishes

You can create monochromatic pieces for a minimalist style or combine colors for a vibrant touch. The slight twist enhances each stitch, and adding wooden, metal, or faux leather handles can transform your creations into authentic boutique accessories.

Recommended Techniques and Stitches

The twisted effect makes basic stitches (single crochet, double crochet) look more defined, and fancy stitches like the pineapple stitch or puff stitch gain volume. Spiral weaving is perfect for bag bases or baskets.

Rubí Flexi slides smoothly and doesn't tangle, ideal for long sessions. Use a 3 to 4 mm crochet hook for a firm finish, or go up in size for more flexibility.

Care and Maintenance Tips

• Hand wash or machine wash (gentle cycle, cold water)
• Avoid ironing and tumble drying
• Store in bags or boxes, do not hang to prevent deformation

Comparison with Other Raffias

Unlike traditional raffia (flat and rigid), Rubí Flexi has a slight twist, soft texture, and is more pleasant to work with. It offers greater resistance, ideal for daily use projects and with more elegant finishes.
