83% Wool - Merino
17% Cellulose - Linen / Flax

A soft merino and linen combination yarn with texture and a hint of tweed.

The natural linen gives the yarn a textured finish with a subtle drape and a rustic feel (without the pique feel) when knitted. When dyed with acid dyes, linen resists dyeing and stays white, giving a pale halo of linen fiber.

It is ideal for sweaters, cardigans, camisoles and shawls.
