Soft Linen
Linen • Wool • Alpaca
This is the perfect yarn for warmer days and cool nights. The alpaca makes a beautiful halo, the linen gives it a crisp and firm hand and the wool provides stability and its own level of softness. This year-round yarn works equally well for lace, colorwork and textures, making it a great choice for accessories that will get lots of use.
