Linen Soft

YarnArt Linen Soft

30% linen, 36% viscose, 34% cotton · all-natural · cool with beautiful drape

About this yarn

YarnArt Linen Soft is an all-natural yarn, made from linen, viscose, and cotton - without synthetic fibers. This combination unites the best of three worlds: the cooling properties of linen, the sheen and smooth drape of viscose, and the pleasant balance of cotton.

The surface is smooth with a subtle sheen, and the naturally somewhat stiffer linen texture is beautifully softened by the viscose. All three fibers are plant-based and hypoallergenic, making Linen Soft an excellent choice for those who prefer natural materials.

One generous ball weighs 100 grams and yields approximately 272 meters.

What is Linen Soft used for?

With its cool, draping character, this is truly a summer yarn, found among our bamboo & linen yarns:

·       Summer blouses and cardigans – light and cool to wear.

·       Scarves and shawls – with a beautiful, smooth drape.

·       Home textiles – pillows, table runners, and curtains.

·       Bags and accessories – natural and sturdy.

Linen Soft is also part of our cotton yarns.

Useful tips

·       Knit or crochet with 4 mm for a nice, average gauge.

·       Due to viscose's drape, this yarn works best in airy, flowing designs.

·       Make a swatch: natural fibers can drape slightly differently after washing.

Care

We recommend hand washing at 30–40 °C; a delicate machine wash at 30 °C can also be done carefully. Lay your work flat to dry — hanging to dry can distort the shape due to the viscose and linen.
