Lovely feather-weight lace yarn; a sheep-free blend of 65% silk and 35% linen. Outstanding drape with a soft hand; smells wonderfully like a field of hay in the sun.
This yarn is NOT white – the natural colour of the unbleached flax gives it a soft grey-brown hue. You will need reactive dyes to colour it; the acid dyes we sell will not work with this yarn.
