How the yarn behaves

Pure linen — starts a little dry on the needles, then blooms dramatically after washing into a soft, fluid fabric. Crisp stitch definition, minimal stretch and almost no memory. Strong fit for warm-weather garments, drapey tops and lightweight shawls where breathability and flow matter. Tip: swatch washed before sizing fitted pieces; the fabric grows and softens noticeably.
