Sunny Linen - 50% linen, 27% baby alpaca, 18% cotton, 5% fine merino wool

Sunny Linen is a soft, breathable yarn made from a unique blend of 50% linen, 27% baby alpaca, 18% cotton and 5% fine merino wool. This refined combination brings together the best qualities of each fibre, creating an exceptionally versatile yarn that is a pleasure to touch.

Linen is a durable natural fibre that absorbs moisture and dries quickly. Combined with cotton, it gives the yarn a light, airy structure — cool and comfortable in warm weather. Baby alpaca and fine merino wool add a delicate softness, ensuring extra comfort against the skin. These fibres also contribute a slight elasticity, improving the knitting experience and the flexibility of the fabric.

Ideal for both knitting and crochet, Sunny Linen is the perfect choice for light tops, airy sweaters and elegant accessories. Its natural texture, with the slightly marled look typical of linen, adds character and refinement to any project.

The yarn pairs beautifully with Pearl Mohair for a delicate halo effect and extra warmth without weight, or with Fine Merino for a denser, more structured fabric.

Due to its natural fibre composition and the dyeing process, darker Sunny Linen colours may release a little dye during the first wash. This is normal, especially with intense, saturated shades.

We recommend:
– washing the piece separately the first time
– using cold water and a gentle wool detergent
– avoiding long soaking

After the first wash, the excess pigment stabilises considerably.
