LINO | Almond
LINO | Almond
I embody all the wonderful qualities of linen. I am lustrous with a slightly rustic appeal. My fibres are strong and durable but have a lovely drape and I am cool so perfect for summer knits.
At first glance I may seem a touch stiff but don't be deceived by appearances. You'll be delighted at how nicely I knit up and the more I am used the softer and more beautiful I become. I'm a hidden gem.

Looking for some knitspiration to get your cast on?
Your knitting style is unique to you. We always recommend knitting a swatch first to ensure you achieve the correct gauge for your chosen pattern.
We do our best to give you an accurate snap of our beautiful fabric and yarn but we know (from experience) that screen displays can be misleading and nothing beats seeing and feeling it in person. This is why we offer samples for purchase, so you can feel confident in your choices.
Why I'm Better
Why I'm Better
Linen is strong, durable, highly water absorbent and breathable. The flax plant, from which linen is made, is resilient, needs minimal water and significantly less fertilizers and pesticides to grow than cotton. It is extremely versatile, none of the plant goes to waste, making linen inherently one of the most earth friendly fibres.
