Spun in Italy with 100% linen, this DK weight yarn is a structured classic. Cool, crisp & breathable, Modern Linen is a perfect choice for warm-weather wardrobes. Beautiful stitch definition gives tops, tees, cardigans, scarves & beach cover-ups resort-worthy polish. We also love this yarn for market bags, beach totes & crocheted purses! Soft & wearable, the linen will continue to soften with every wash. Textured stitches, lace & simple stockinette come to life in the palette of modern colorways.
