A soft single ply merino and linen blend yarn with texture and a gentle tweedy haze. NYLON FREE! The natural linen gives the yarn a textured finish with subtle drape. The linen resists the dye and remains white, producing a halo of linen fibres. This yarn is ideal for spring, autumn and summer items such as cowls, shawls and lightweight tops.

Dyed in an environmentally friendly manner with acid dyes, carefully washed in unscented wool wash and sent in skeins unless otherwise requested. I try to design my dye schedule in such a manner that I can re-use dye baths several times per session and lower my environmental impact.

All colorways are dyed upon order, it takes one week to prepare your high quality natural merino-linen skeins.If you want something else, please contact me!

The listing is for 1 skein of yarn (unless explicitly mentioned otherwise). Photo's of multiple skeins shows the comparison between skeins and/or yarn bases.

Colors may slightly vary on every device. I photograph the yarn with natural light.
