Firefly is a warm-weather yarn with a subtle sheen and wonderful hand. The juxtaposition of the linen with a light-catching sheen gives it a distinctly feminine look. Firefly drapes wonderfully at a wide range of gauges – knit loosely for elegant lace or more tightly for stockinette fabrics.
Linen is an ancient sustainable, natural fibre spun from the flax plant. Flax itself is naturally resistant to pests and therefore practically no pesticides nor herbicides are necessary to grow these eco-friendly stem fiber plants. Flax plants produce large amounts of usable fiber per acre and do not require irrigation. Linen is durable, soft, lustrous and flexible and will naturally soften with wear and washing.
Studio Linen is made from 100% linen. 85% is recycled rayon-linen fiber, sorted from selected wastage and regenerated using the eco-friendly hydrolysis method. Blended with 15% premium natural linen, these fibers are twisted and dyed by a specialist Italian spinner in Biella to produce a unique yarn with a dry hand feel and subtle sheen.
Lanaknits Allhemp3 sustainable yarn skeins are the perfect weight for delicate knits such as lace work and light clothing. It provides an exceptional drape effect only achievable with its delicate yet durable nature. It is lovely as a lightweight garment, think shell, tank top or as a cover-up during warmer months and warm climates.
Nuna is an unbelievably soft and luxurious yarn. The fiber blend starts with extrafine Merino wool for a bit of bounce, adds mulberry silk for a lovely sheen, and then finishes off with a bit of bamboo viscose for drape! With an amazing stitch definition this would make an awesome lace project! Mirasol yarns are made in Peru to benefit the Mirasol Project – a group that strives to improve the lives of Peruvian shepherds (homeland of the Inca’s) through building and supporting educational facilities.
Can you feel it!?!?! It’s silky soft and Muench Yarns Touch Me just begs to be cuddled. This is a chenille-like yarn that requires dry clearning. But it’s quite soft with a rich, rounded touch.
