This exquisite blend combines the rustic charm of linen with the softness of alpaca and the subtle sheen of silk, creating a yarn that is both elegant and naturally textured. It feels soft next to the skin, though may not suit those allergic to camelids. The linen adds a warm caramel tone to the yarn’s colour, while the silk lends a delicate shine and lightness. With a drape similar to our cashmere blend, this yarn is ideal for summer sweaters, cardigans, and lightweight shawls. It takes dye beautifully, resulting in soft, muted hues. Additionally, its structure makes it well-suited for weaving and other textured projects.

Each skein is hand-dyed in small batches and variations between skeins should be expected. We dye and store all of our yarn in our smoke-free and pet-free home. Due to the individual nature of hand-dyed yarn, I would always recommend alternating skeins.
The skeins has been photographed in natural light to give you the best representation of colour, but please be aware that screens and monitors can differ slightly. I cannot guarantee that your device's display of any colour will be accurate.
High quality acid dyes are properly set before washing and rinsing twice to assure the colour adheres correctly, however some bright or extreme colours may bleed slightly in the first wash.
