ModeFlax
Wool not quite your cup of tea?
We have two beautiful Linen yarns ModeFlax Lace and ModeFlax Sport.
- ModeFlax Lace
(approx 575 yds per 100gr skein) - ModeFlax Sport
(approx 270 yds per 100gr skein)
COLOR NOTE Since Linen is a plant fiber, it takes dye differently than wool or silk (which sucks it up like a milkshake!) Therefore a color will appear gentler and softer in Linen than in our other bases.
Please don’t believe the stories you’ve heard about linen and other plant fiber yarns, they’re much nicer to work with than many folks think!
Our linen’s been conditioned and re-skeined several times, helping to tame the fibers and making them easier to knit & crochet. You will LOVE this lovely, glistening, strong fiber!
And to top it all off, ModeFlax machine washes and dries wonderfully! Every time you wash it, it just gets softer and softer!
Excellent for baby and children’s garments, for intimate items, and summer fashions.
