Baa Ram Ewe: Linseed
Linseed is a luxury plant based blend made up of 60% linen, sourced from France and Belgium, and 40% cotton slub, sourced from Spain. When twisted together, these fibres make a strong and durable yarn perfect for knitting. It creates a light and drapey fabric with a rustic appearance. Due to the nature of this natural slub yarn, movement may occur.
