Imported yarn
Ethically produced merino from unmulesed South African sheep.
Linen from Belgium.
This soft merino/linen blend yarn has a texture with a gentle tweedy haze. The linen fibres resist the acid dyes used to dye wool creating a pale halo of linen fibres. This creates a lovely rustic fabric.
The 2 plies of medium twist yarn naturally twist away from each other, giving a textured look when knitted up. Lace work really pops and the 2 plies result in a more structured fabric than when using a single ply.
Ideal for jumpers, tees, cowls and shawls.
