However, because the metallic yarn is made by vacuum-plating aluminum or vacuum-plating silver on the polyester film by physical methods, and then coloring and processing.

      Therefore, the chemical properties of metallic thread are unstable and cannot be used like ordinary textile fibers. The aluminum film in the gold and silver wire is not resistant to alkali; the silver film is not resistant to acid, and the silver film will turn black when exposed to sulfide, and stretching or heavy friction will cause the metal plating to peel off. Traditional gold and silver wires are divided into flat gold wires and round gold wires. Glue gold foil on paper and cut into thin strips of about 0.5 mm to form a flat gold thread, and then wrap the flat gold thread around cotton yarn or silk thread to form a round gold thread.

      – Choose the right project: Things like scarves, cowls, and hats are all good choices.

      – Go up a needle size: Because metallic yarn is typically quite thin, you'll want to go up a needle size (or two) when using it. This will help prevent your stitches from becoming too tight and makes working with the yarn much easier.

      – Be careful not to split the yarn: Splitting the yarn can be difficult to avoid when using metallic yarn, so just be careful and take your time. If you do happen to split the yarn, simply use a crochet hook or needle to draw the two ends back together again.
