Studio Linen Eco is a DK weight 100% linen yarn that has a very silky feel to it. It's made from 70% Tencel, cellulose fiber sourced from responsibly managed forests and produced in a closed loop system to almost entirely recycle the water and solvents used, and 30% natural linen. Linen itself comes from the flax plant which does not require irrigation. Made in Italy.
We do not recommend winding it on a swift and ball winder because the yarn has a tendency to tangle. This is one yarn where it is better to wind it by hand into an *old school* type of ball.
Studio Linen Eco has a slight sheen to it, a soft drape, and excellent stitch definition.
