FAQs

What to knit with linen yarn?
Linen yarn opens up a world of knitting possibilities. Consider crafting stylish tank tops, airy cardigans, elegant lace shawls, or comfortable beach cover-ups. You can also explore knitting home decor items or other fashionable and beautiful pieces for any season.

What is linen yarn made of?
Linen yarn is made from the fibers of the flax plant, scientifically known as Linum usitatissimum. It is a natural fiber derived from the stalks of the flax plant.

How is linen yarn made?
The flax plant’s long, fibrous stems are then soaked in water to facilitate the separation of the outer bark from the inner fibers. This process, known as retting, helps loosen the fibers. After retting, the fibers are dried and combed to remove impurities and align them. Next, the fibers are spun into yarn using either a traditional or modern spinning method.

How to soften linen yarn?
You can soak it in lukewarm water with a gentle fabric softener or conditioner for about 30 minutes. Afterward, gently squeeze out the excess water. Then, lay the yarn flat to air dry or use a towel to blot away any remaining moisture. This process should help to soften the linen yarn.
