Flax Botanica, Light DK Yarn - Maize
Flax Botanica, the perfect three season yarn, features a balanced blend of cooling silk and linen combined with cozy merino wool, making it the ideal choice for garments to be worn on warm days and layers in cooler weather.
This sophisticated yarn of superior quality is spun from French linen (a famously durable plant fiber), responsibly sourced Merino wool, and extra soft Tussah silk exclusively for us at our local fiber mill. It has a slightly rustic, hand spun character.
You will notice that the durable, organic fibers used in Flax Botanica feel so much better against bare skin than yarn made with acrylic or nylon - and they’re more eco-friendly to boot. The pieces you create will be favorites in your wardrobe for many years to come.
Fun fact about linen: it gets softer with every wear and wash!
