Two spring/summer yarns newly re-stocked! March 4, 2014 – Posted in: New in Store, Project Ideas

Louet Euroflax

Louet?s long line linen yarn is made out of custom wet spun flax-fiber. Euroflax is a superior quality, fine linen which is double boiled and then steamed to ensure maximum softness. We?ve knit several summer projects with Euroflax and can?t say enough about it?s drape, texture, and durability.
Machine Washable and dryable!

Classic Elite Firefly

From the Classic Elite website: ?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.?
25% linen, 75% viscose
Hand wash cold, dry flat.
6 sts per in./ 155 yds / 50 grams
