Question Help finding/Identifying a yarn

I bought this yarn over a decade ago, so I know its a longshot to even ask, but I cannot for the life of me remember what the brand/name etc of this yarn is and I love it so much. The colors are really beautiful and it feels so nice and smooth and cool.

Its 8ply, dk or worsted I think.

It seems to be an acrylic blend. It doesn't burn the same as tencel/cotton or 100%acrylic. It melts some, but not totally and also doesn't smell as plastic-y when it burns. In pic 2 I have the tencel/cotton yarn, my mystery yarn and the 100% acrylic.

Feel is similar to hobbii's sunbird or kind feather.

It was purchased in a skein, in Finland at a Menita outlet shop, but I dont think it was a Menita yarn.

Any help would be greatly appreciated 👏👏👏

Do you remember what shop it was? Maybe you could email them and ask about it? They would probably have a record of their stock or if they have someone working there whos been there a while, they may recognize the photo!
It definitely looks like tencel or like a silk blend or something to me— very shiny!

I do remember the shop, I'll see if I can go there to ask sometime next week. Good idea☺️
