A breathable blend of alpaca, linen, and silk for a lightweight, airy feel.

Our Flax yarn is soft and luscious, with an ever-so-gentle halo and a magnificent drape. This 3-ply, fingering weight yarn is our favorite for summertime knitting and is perfect for lightweight sweaters, cardigans, shawls, and blankets. Plus it adds a lovely, slightly rustic texture to weavings.

50% Alpaca, 25% Linen, 25% Silk.
Mill-spun. Non-superwash.
