Gorgeous bombyx silk and linen fingering weight natural ivory undyed yarn. 5/2 65% silk/35% linen.
This yarn has a high silk content, so its drape is soft rather than crisp. It will get softer with washing (yes, you can machine wash!)
Can be dyed with either acid or fiber reactive dyes. When dyed with acid dyes, the linen "tints" rather than being dyed, so the result is an elegant heathered color. Dyed with Procion dyes, the color is much more saturated.
Crisp linen with the drape of silk.......softens with wear and lasts for ages!
