Using 18.5 micron Merino and 20% linen for strength, this yarn has a lovely plump texture and a soft, light-caramel base colour, making it great for eco-friendly sock knitting. The yarn takes the dye nicely, and the speckles spread a little. Colours remain soft and muted on this yarn. We have made this specifically for a sock yarn; however it would make a lovely summer garment yarn or would be nice for accessories. The fabric knits with a nice velvety texture and a gentle drape, and with neat stitch definition.
